● Ask About Your Result
Calculate first, then ask about current, watts, wire sizing or formula choice.
Frequently Asked Questions

Use I = V ÷ R. Current in amps equals voltage in volts divided by resistance in ohms.

Use I = P ÷ V. Current in amps equals power in watts divided by voltage in volts. This is for DC or simple resistive AC loads.

No. It calculates electrical current only. Wire, fuse and breaker sizing also depends on voltage, insulation, temperature, run length, duty cycle, installation method and local electrical code.
