It’s Monday and on this day in history:
Joule, Watt and Quadrant Adopted
1889 Second International Electrical Congress adopts the joule as unit of energy (after James Prescott Joule), the watt as unit of power (after James Watt) and the quadrant as unit of electrical inductance (later renamed henry)
> > > Clint’s comment: I knew the first 2, but didn’t realise the inductance unit used to be quadrant. No work today as it’s a public holiday, but every day is a school day, as they say :)
