THE AMPERE-TURN AND THE GILBERT
When working with electromagnets, another unit is employed. This is the ampere-turn (At). It is a unit of magnetomotive force. A wire bent into a circle and carrying 1 A of current produces 1 At of magnetomotive force. If the wire is bent into a loop having 50 turns, and the current stays the same, the resulting magnetomotive force becomes 50 times as great, that is, 50 At. If the current in the 50-turn loop is reduced to 1/50 A or 20 mA, the magnetomotive force goes back down to 1 At.
A unit called the gilbert is sometimes used to express magnetomotive force. This unit is equal to about 1.256 At. To approximate ampere-turns when the number of gilberts is known, multiply by 1.256. To approximate gilberts when the number of ampere-turns is known, multiply by 0.796.
