And even more correct to say current x impedance, surely?AdamW said:It is indeed, that is my point: referring to a quantity simply by it's unit is not always entirely desirable. Everyone knows what you mean if you say Volts = current x resistance, but it is more correct to say p.d. instead.
How are you going to increase the voltage? You'd be much better off reducing the current...pearce_jj said:To reduce loss either use a bigger cable or increase the voltage.
