Abcoulomb (emu of Charge) (aC) is a unit in the category of Electric charge. It is also known as abcoulombs. This unit is commonly used in the cgs unit system. Abcoulomb (emu of Charge) (aC) has a dimension of TI where T is time, and I is electric current. It can be converted to the corresponding standard SI unit C by multiplying its value by a factor of 10.

Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).

Other units in the category of Electric charge include A.u. of Charge (a.u., e), Ampere-Hour (Ah), Coulomb (C), Electronic Charge, Electrostatic Ft-Lbf-Sec, Electrostatic Unit (esu), Franklin (Fr), and Statcoulomb (statC).
