noun
- Plural of henry; a unit of electrical inductance in the International System of Units (SI).
Usage: technical; physics
Examples
- The inductor has a measured inductance of 5 henries.
- Electrical engineers often work with inductances measured in millihenries or microhenries rather than henries.
- The circuit's total inductance was calculated to be 2.5 henries.
- High-inductance coils may have inductances in the range of several henries.
