What is the Ohm's Law & Power Calculator?
This tool is an in-browser simulator that instantly calculates "Ohm's Law" and "Electrical Power", the fundamentals of electrical circuits. By simply entering any two known values out of Voltage (V), Current (A), Resistance (Ω), and Power (W), the remaining values are automatically calculated. It is widely used for electronics hobbies, electrical installation design, and checking the power consumption of household appliances.
For example, it is perfect for calculating the resistance value needed to limit the current of an LED, or for checking the wattage consumed by a USB device based on its current draw.
How to Remember the Formulas
・Current (I) = Voltage (V) ÷ Resistance (R)
・Resistance (R) = Voltage (V) ÷ Current (I)
About Electric Power (Watts / W) Calculation
Electric power (P) represents the amount of electrical energy consumed per unit of time.
It is calculated using Power (W) = Voltage (V) × Current (I), and can also be expressed using Resistance (R) as W = I²R or W = V²/R.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
A. Calculations are executed based on the values entered. Every time you change a field, the other items are automatically recalculated based on your priority lock rules.
A. Yes, it is fully supported. If you are calculating very small values (such as 100mA = 0.1A), please convert the units into standard Ampere (A) or Ohm (Ω) before inputting.
