Electrical Fundamentals Tool

Ohm's LawCalculator

Solve voltage, current, resistance, and power from any two known circuit values before checking voltage drop or wire size.

Enter any two positive values and solve the remaining voltage, current, resistance, and power values. Use the result as a quick load check before running voltage drop, wire sizing, or conductor table lookups.

Calculator Inputs

Provide any two known circuit values

Ohm's law is a circuit relationship, not an NEC sizing rule. Use calculated current as an input to ampacity, conductor sizing, overcurrent protection, and voltage-drop checks.

Solved Values

Voltage, current, resistance, and power

Voltage
120V

Input value

Current
20.00A

Input value

Resistance
6.00ohm

Calculated value

Power
2,400W

Core Formulas

VoltageV = I x R
CurrentI = V / R
PowerP = V x I
ResistanceR = V / I

Use the Result in Circuit Design

Ohm's law is often the first calculation. The next step is checking conductor resistance, voltage drop, ampacity, and applicable NEC constraints for the installation.
