Amperage

"It seems to me that ampèrage cuts just as much of a figure as voltage. In the case of static electricity we find that between the conductors of a machine, where we can get a spark of 6 or 7 inches, we will have an electro-motive force of not less than 3,000 volts, and yet there is not one of us in this room but can take that through his body without injury, because there is no ampèrage to speak of."
