Charge is constant ================== The total charge of any isolated system is conserved. **Conditions:** #. The system is isolated, i.e. no particles can leave it. **Links:** #. `Wikipedia `__. .. py:currentmodule:: symplyphysics.laws.conservation.charge_is_constant .. py:data:: time :attr:`~symplyphysics.symbols.basic.time`.
