Hans Christian Oersted. In 1820, a Danish physics teacher observed that the current moving through a wire moved the needle on a nearby compass. when the current was reversed, the compass needle was deflected in the opposite direction. these magnetic effects ceased when the current in the wire stopped.

The direction of conventional current is always given by the direction in which positive charge moves. This can be achieved either by moving positive charges in this direction, or by moving negative charges (ie.electrons) in the opposite direction.If you are moving electrons then the side which they are going to becomes negative and the side they are leaving becomes positive.Since direction of current is towards the positive, the current is in the opposite direction to flow of electrons.Source(s): John C Â· 7 years ago.ating Newest Oldest.
