Electrical energy is the capacity of a system to move charged particles. Just like mass, charge is a fundamental property of matter because it is an inherent characteristic of protons and electrons. Charge is measured in SI units of coulombs (C), but it is often quantized as integer multiples of the elementary charge e = 1.602 × 10-19 C possessed by the electron and proton, by convention, -e and +e, respectively (Boyle, 2004)..

Like charges repel each other, and opposite charges attract. Defined in terms of this rule, electrical energy is the amount of work ...
