Electron Movement Current Flow
The flow of electrons is termedelectron current. Electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive. Conventional currentor simply current, behaves as if positive charge carriers cause current flow. Conventional current flows from the positive terminal to the negative. Perhaps the clearestway to think about this is to pretend as if movement of positive charge carriers constituted current flow.
It is important to realize that the difference between conventional current flow and electron flow in no way effects any real-world behavior or computational results. In general, analyzing anelectrical circuit yields results that are independent of the assumed direction of current flow. Con-ventional current flow is the standard that most all of the world follows.
