Though it seems relatively widespread to compare the invisible phenomenon of electrical current with the flow of water, most models stop where it gets complicated. To be honest, when i started tinkering with the first electronic circuits, i always imagined wires as pipes and current as water flowing through them. The problem was that i didn’t trust this image myself.
Current is just one parameter in a circuit, but then there you have voltage, resistance, capacitance, impedance, you name them.
