System of units in which the base units
metre, kilogram, and second replace the
centimetre, gram, and second of the c.g.s.
system. From it developed the SI system (see
SI units). It simplifies the incorporation of
the electrical units into the metric system,
and was incorporated in SI. For application
to electrical and magnetic phenomena, the
ampere was added, creating what is called the
m.k.s.a. system.
