Ask HN: Have electricity concepts been applied to information systems?

I'm looking for an analogy between information transmission and eletrical circuits concepts and measures: - Current/Tension -- Amperes -- Frequency -- Frequency - Potency -- Watt -- Joule Would be interested in any source, either some research papers or your thoughts in a comment. I think it can be a good thought experiment but I'm especially intrigued what would be the analogous of Current frequency. After having a significant outage in one of the systems I maintain and reading the UK power outage analysis[1] I wonder if we could learn from these systems and find better measures to detect systemic problems.
