Ohms Law Calculator

The three calculators below calculate voltage, current or resistance using ohms law. Fill in the two boxes on the left and the missing vlaue will be calculated and shown on the right. The resistance calculator also shows preferred resistor values; use the radio buttons on the calculator to select the preferred value series to use.

Formulae:

The formula for Ohms Law is:

V = I * R, where V is voltage, I is current and R is resistance

This can be re-arranged to find current or resistance:

I = V / R
R = V / I
