I don't have canon examples at hand, but I'm sure that {law'} is not 
only "many" but also "much" (bIQ law' - "a lot of water", not "many 
waters"). So with noncountable things like {'ul law'} I don't read it as 
"many electricities", but "much electricity".

I think one can use this to distinguish between "a lot of speed, very 
fast {Do law'} and "a high amount of speed measured in numbers" {Do vItlh}.
