About this calculator
Ohm's law (V = IR) is the foundational electrical equation. Combined with P = IV, you can express any of voltage, current, resistance, or power in terms of any two of the others. The classic "wheel" of formulas: V = IR, V = P/I, V = √(PR); I = V/R, I = P/V, I = √(P/R); R = V/I, R = V²/P, R = P/I²; P = IV, P = I²R, P = V²/R.
