Como nombres para las unidades de diversas magnitudes eléctricas, Bright y Clark sugirieron «ohma» para el voltaje, «faradio» para la carga, «galvat» para la corriente y «voltio» para la resistencia.

Sir W. Thomson, et al. (1873) "First report of the Committee for the Selection and Nomenclature of Dynamical and Electrical Units", Report of the 43rd Meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science (Bradford, September 1873), pp. 222-225. From p. 223: "The "ohm," as represented by the original standard coil, is approximately 109 C.G.S. units of resistance; the "volt" is approximately 108 C.G.S. units of electromotive force; and the "farad" is approximately 1/109 of the C.G.S. unit of capacity."
