In the CGS system, the unit of the H-field is the oersted and the unit of the B-field is the gauss.In the SI system, the unit ampere per meter (A/m), which is equivalent to newton per weber, is used for the H-field and the unit of tesla is used for the B-field.
An electric field (sometimes called E-field [1]) is a physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles.In classical electromagnetism, the electric field of a single charge (or group of charges) describes their capacity to exert attractive or repulsive forces on another charged object.
Position vector r is a point to calculate the electric field; r′ is a point in the charged object. Contrary to the strong analogy between (classical) gravitation and electrostatics, there are no "centre of charge" or "centre of electrostatic attraction" analogues.

gluon field strength tensor: inverse length squared (1/m 2) acceleration due to gravity: meters per second squared (m/s 2), or equivalently, newtons per kilogram (N/kg) magnetic field strength: ampere per meter (A/m) Hamiltonian: joule (J) enthalpy: joule (J) thermal current: watt (W)
The field strength at which break down occurs is an intrinsic property of the material called its dielectric strength. In practical electric circuits electrical breakdown is often an unwanted occurrence, a failure of insulating material causing a short circuit , resulting in a catastrophic failure of the equipment.
Magnetic field strength: H: Strength of a magnetic field A/m L −1 I: vector field Magnetic flux density: B: Measure for the strength of the magnetic field tesla (T = Wb/m 2) M T −2 I −1: pseudovector field Magnetic moment (or magnetic dipole moment) m: The component of magnetic strength and orientation that can be represented by an ...
Relative permittivity is the factor by which the electric field between the charges is decreased relative to vacuum. Likewise, relative permittivity is the ratio of the capacitance of a capacitor using that material as a dielectric , compared with a similar capacitor that has vacuum as its dielectric.
