Any measurement measures something real. This measured something is the real entity and has some attributes, which we can eventually measure. So we have e.g. some current in a wire and want to measure the strength of this current. The current strength is an attribut of the electric current, but no current itself. Therefore the Ampere measures the strength of electrical current, which is therefore the dimension, to which the unit Ampere belongs. The unit is only altering the numerical value of the measurement, but not the measured quantity, if the units are changed (e.g. to milliAmps). TH ...
