Inductance. In electromagnetism and electronics, inductance is the property of a conductor by which a change in current in the conductor induces a voltage in both the conductor itself and in any nearby conductors.
The inductor is a conductor, usually a coil of wire, that stores energy in a magnetic field in response to the current through it. When the current changes, the magnetic field does too, inducing a voltage between the ends of the conductor.
