The quantization of electric charge means that the total charge of the body is always an integral multiple of a basic quantum of charge (e) i.e

q = ne where, n = 0, ±1, ±2, ±3, .....
The basic cause of quantization of electric charge is that during rubbing only an integral number of electrons can be transferred from one body to another.
