How to Use the Ohms Law Calculator

  1. 1

    Enter the known values

    Fill in the fields and confirm that the units match the formula shown on the page.

  2. 2

    Click Calculate

    The primary answer appears in the highlighted row, with related check values underneath.

  3. 3

    Read the result

    Voltage is the pressure across the resistance. Power helps you see whether a resistor or component rating is likely to be exceeded.

What This Calculator Is Best For

Use it to calculate voltage from current and resistance, then check the associated electrical power.

  • Choose a resistor rating.
  • Check a simple DC circuit.
  • Estimate power draw.

How to Read the Result

Voltage is the pressure across the resistance. Power helps you see whether a resistor or component rating is likely to be exceeded.

Before You Rely on the Result

Use amperes and ohms for a voltage result in volts.
