Planck current

The Planck current is the unit of electric current, denoted by Ip, in the system of natural units known as Planck units.

 I_p = q_p/t_p = (c^6 4 \pi \varepsilon_0 / G )^ \frac{1}{2} ≈ 3.479 × 1025 A

where:

q_p = (c \hbar 4 \pi \varepsilon_0 )^ \frac{1}{2} is the Planck charge

t_p = (\hbar G/c^5)^ \frac{1}{2} is the Planck time

\varepsilon_0 = permittivity in vacuum

\hbar is the reduced Planck constant

G is the gravitational constant

c is the speed of light in vacuum.

The Planck current is that current which, in a conductor, carries a Planck charge in Planck time.

Alternatively, the Planck current is that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length and negligible circular cross-section, and placed a Planck length apart in vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal to a Planck force per Planck length.
