weber

The SI-derived unit of magnetic flux, equal to the flux that produces an electromotive force of one volt in a conducting loop when the flux is uniformly reduced to zero within one second.

A name proposed by Latimer Clarke for the unit of electrical quantity which has since been named coulomb; it was also for some time used for the practical unit of electrical current which is now called ampere.

The standard unit of electrical quantity, and also of current. See coulomb, and amp�re.

In the International System of Units, the derived unit of magnetic flux; the flux linking a circuit of one turn that produces an electromotive force of one volt when reduced uniformly to zero in one second. Symbol: Wb
