The equation R=V/I is used to define the ohmic (electrical) resistance, and it is called Ohm's Law. The unit for the electrical resistance is the Ohm (Ω), and its formula symbol is R (lat. resis = resist).
The calculation basis for this resistance calculator:
The formula it is based on is R=V/I (Ohm's Law).
The 2nd decimal point in the result is rounded up.
The electrical conductivity is the reciprocal value of the electrical resistance. Its formula sign is G, its measuring unit is S (Siemens). Some calculations can be more elegantly achieved with conductance as the quantity for the resistance.
The calculation basis for this conductivity converter:
The formula this is based on is R=1/G.
The 5th decimal point in the result is rounded up.
The calculation basis for the above calculator:
The formulas it is based on are P=V2/R, respectively W=I2Rt, and apply for direct current.
The 2nd decimal point in the result is rounded up.
Error messages
Overflow appears when the value to be displayed is too large for the display field. The other displayed values remain valid.
NaN (Not a Number) appears when an invalid number was entered in one of the input fields, most commonly an entry containing an incorrect decimal character (e.g. point and not comma), a letter or a thousands separator.
