In Inductor the Voltage Is?

Zero voltage means an inductor with constant current looks like a short circuit, the same as a plain wire. Even if the current really big, like 100 A 100\,\text A 100A100, start text, A, end text, if it is constant, the voltage across the inductor is still 0 volts.

What is the voltage of an inductor?

So inductance is also a measure of the amount of electromotive force (voltage) generated for a given rate of change of current. For example, an inductor with an inductance of 1 henry produces an EMF of 1 volt when the current through the inductor changes at the rate of 1 ampere per second.

Does voltage lead current in an inductor?

The voltage across an inductor “leads” the current because of the Lenz's law. Therefore, the phasor representing the current and voltage would be given as in.
