You have learned that electricity in a circuit consists is the motion of negative charge carriers, electrons, flowing from the negative pole to the positive pole. Yet, in the representation of an electrical circuit, the current is always represented flowing from the positive terminal of a battery to the negative terminal. Such current is called the conventional current. Does the conventional current have a physical meaning or is this just an abstraction? Find out in 1 minute with this short video!
