Answer

The four fundamental units of electricity are:

  1. Ampere (A) - measures electric current
  2. Volt (V) - measures electrical potential or voltage
  3. Ohm (Ω) - measures electrical resistance
  4. Watt (W) - measures electrical power

These units work together to describe different aspects of electrical systems. Understanding how they relate to each other through formulas like Ohm's Law is crucial for working with electricity safely and effectively.
