Calculate Any Electrical Value

Ohm's Law and power equations form the foundation of electrical engineering. Our calculator lets you find any unknown value (voltage, current, resistance, or power) when you know two others.

What is Ohm's Law?

Ohm's Law states that the current through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance. Combined with power equations, you can calculate any electrical parameter.

Ohm's Law & Power Formulas

V = I × R, P = V × I = I²R = V²/R
