Conventional current flow is the flow of positive charges, or the equivalent flow of positive charges. That is, if what flows is really negative charges (for example, an electron), which flow in one direction, the "conventional current" flows in the opposite direction.

Conventional current flow is the idea that electric current flows from the positive terminal of a power source to the negative terminal. This concept is used in circuit analysis and is opposite to the actual flow of electrons, which move from the negative terminal to the positive terminal.
