Assumptions and limits.
  • DC or resistive AC load.

Power relationships

P = V × I, P = I² × R and P = V² / R are equivalent for a resistive load.

Frequently asked questions

Is this real or apparent power?
This is real power for a DC or purely resistive load. For AC loads with reactance use the AC power calculator.
