Measures introduced by Hampshire (4)

I believe the answer is:

amps

'measures' is the definition.
(amp is a kind of measure)

'introduced by hampshire' is the wordplay.
'introduced by' indicates a hidden word.
'AMPS' can be found hidden inside 'hampshire'.

(Other definitions for amps that I've seen before include "Current measures" , "Spam (anag)" , "concert gear" , "'Units of electric current, in short (4)'" , "Units of electrical power" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
