Back to Resources

Solve voltage, current, resistance, and power from known electrical values.

Inputs

Result

Example Inputs: V = 12, R = 6

Example Output: I = 2 A, P = 24 W

Live Result: Enter values and click Calculate.

Formula

V = I * R; I = V / R; R = V / I; P = V * I = I^2 * R = V^2 / R

Worked Example

Use the example inputs and outputs above to walk through the calculation step-by-step.

FAQ

What values do I need to enter?
Enter any two of voltage, current, and resistance. The calculator solves the third value and power.

Why do I get an inconsistency error?
If you enter all three values, they must satisfy V = I * R within rounding tolerance.

Can I use engineering notation?
Yes. Inputs like 4.7k or 20mA are accepted.
