For the present, having electricity (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

current

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'for the present' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'electricity' is the second definition.
(current electricity is a kind of electricity)

'having' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for current that I've seen before include "Happening now" , "Electrical flow" , "unlike these pieces" , "Contemporary" , "moving mass" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
