The Ampere is the unit of electric current. It depends upon a voltage in order for it to occur, and the Volt is that unit. The Ohm is the unit of resistance and represents the difficulty of moving the electrons by the voltage.

True...

Voltage is a measurement of the potential difference in ellectricity the biger the difference between active and neutral the bigger the voltage. The amount of ellectricity is measured in Kilowat hours.

Answer

No. 'Electricity' is not a quantity, so cannot be measured. 'Electricity' is the name given to a branch of science. The volt, however, is the SI unit of measurement for potential and potential difference (voltage).

Further to the above answer, the kilowatt hour is a unit of measurement of energy, not 'amount of electricity' -again, there is no such quantity!

Ampere, or Amp for short.

1 A = 1 Coulomb per second, where 1 Coulomb is equal to a certain number of electrons. IF a load draws 1 Amp, it is drawing 1 Coulomb every second.

There are several units related to electricity.

The unit of current is the ampere.

The unit of electric potential, more commonly known as voltage, is the volt.

No, a coulomb (C) is a unit of energy. The unit of current is the ampere (A), which is commonly abbreviated 'amp'. A current of one amp means a movement of one coulomb of energy per second.

No.

Voltage is measured in volts. Current is in amperes. (Amps for short)
