The consequences of the revision of the International System of Units for electrical quantum metrology are discussed herein. Possible applications of single‐electron transport pump devices and other topical state‐of‐the‐art metrology methodologies based on quantum electrical effects are reviewed, with a focus on their potential for and implications on electrical metrology in the future.
