Current methods for measuring magnetic flux are based on performing many measure-ments over a large ensemble of electrons. We propose a novel method for measuring the flux modulo hce using only a single electron. Furthermore, we show, for the first time, how to understand this result on geometric grounds when utilizing only the quantization of angular momentum. A transformation to a rotating frame of reference reveals the nonlocal effect of magnetic flux on the electron, without the need of solving the Schrödinger equation. This provides a new intuition for understanding the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect.
