The SI system is based on six primary units as follows:
Basic SI units
Quantity Unit Symbol
Length Metre m
Mass Kilogramme kg
Time Second s
Electric current Ampere A

In addition to these there are a number of supplementary and derived units. We give below a selection of those which are most likely to be required by students using this book. A full list of the SI Units and conventions is given in BSI publication PD 5686.
