  1. Electrical systems by convention use positive charges. That's because Ben Franklin, who originated the system, knew nothing about electrons; he had a 50-50 chance of getting it right, and didn't. As it happens, in virtually all circumstances, it makes no difference whether positive or negative particles are charge carriers (the exception is with the Hall effect) so the convention has never been changed.
