Electrical converters translate between voltage, current, resistance, power, and energy units (V, A, Ω, W, kW, kWh, etc.).

Formule

Ohm\'s Law: V = I × R
V
I²R = V²/R — I²R = V²/R
I
I²R = V²/R — I²R = V²/R
R
R value — Variable used in the calculation

Guide étape par étape

  1. 1Ohm's Law: V = I × R
  2. 2Power: P = V × I = I²R = V²/R
  3. 3Energy: E = P × t (watts × hours = watt-hours)

Erreurs courantes à éviter

  • Adding watts from different circuits (totals correctly)
  • Confusing kW with kWh (power vs. energy)

Questions fréquentes

Why distinguish watts from watt-hours?

Watts = instantaneous power; watt-hours = total energy used. Bills charge for energy, not power.

How do you reduce electrical cost?

Reduce watts (efficient appliances) or reduce hours (use less). Biggest impacts: heating, cooling, water heating.
