==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
'''Megaamps''' ('''MA''') are a [[unit]] of [[Electrical Current|current]] 1,000,000 times larger than the [[SI Unit]]; the [[Amp]].
===About Megaamps===
: '''Megaamps''' are shortened to '''MA''' with an upper case M and an upper case A.
: [[Mega]] means one million so there are 1,000,000 [[Amp]]s in a [[megaamp]].
