amperagen.

Brit.

/ˈamp(ə)rɪdʒ/,

/amˈpɛːrɪdʒ/, U.S.

/ˈæmp(ə)rɪdʒ/,

/ˈæmˌpɪrɪdʒ/

Forms: 1800s ampèrage, 1900s– amperage.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: ampere n., -age suffix.

Etymology: < ampere n. + -age suffix. Compare voltage n.²

The magnitude of an electric current expressed in amperes; (also) the maximum current that can be safely applied to a device or component.

1886 Telegr. Jrnl. & Electr. Rev. 12 Mar. 242/1 I have heard its efficiency in ampère hours is 90 per cent., provided that the charge and discharge does not exceed a certain ampèrage per pound of lead.

1894 Work 17 Mar. 139/2 The longer the length of wire you use on any armature, the higher will be the voltage, but the lower the ampèrage.

1941 Illustr. London News 18 Feb. 191/1 Ordinary X-ray pictures are taken by long exposure to rays generated by high voltage and low amperage current.

1978 Changing Times Dec. 17/2 It doesn't take an electric chair with special high voltage and high amperage to deliver a fatal jolt.

2010 B. Sharp Fix it, make it, grow it, bake It iv. 104 Make sure the new fuse has the same amperage as the old one.
