Electrical units crossword clue

76 Down · WSJ Crossword, September 18, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
OHMS
OHMS (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Electrical units” is OHMS. It appears as 76 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 18, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Guest Workers” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 14, column 4 of the 21×21 grid.

A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with O and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.

Past appearances

OHMS has not appeared as an answer in any other WSJ puzzle in our index, which runs from May 2026 onward. It will be listed here the next time it turns up.
