V(V) = P(W) / I(A)The voltage V in volts (V) is equal to the current I in amperes (A) times the resistance R in ohms (Ω):

V(V) = I(A) · R(Ω)

How to convert amps to ohms (Ω)The resistance R in ohms (Ω) is equal to the voltage V in volts (V) divided by the current I in amperes (A):

R(Ω) = V(V) / I(A)

How to convert amps to kilowatts (kW)The power P in kilowatts (kW) is equal to the current I in amps (A) times the voltage V in volts (V) divided by 1000:

P(kW) = I(A) · V(V) / 1000

How to convert amps to kilovolt-ampere (kVA)The apparent power S in kilovolt-amps (kVA) is equal to RMS current IRMS in amps (A), times the RMS voltage VRMS in volts (V), divided by 1000:

S(kVA) = IRMS(A) · VRMS(V) / 1000

Ohm (Ω)Ohm (symbol Ω) is the electrical unit of resistance.The Ohm unit was named after George Simon Ohm.

1Ω = 1V / 1A = 1J · 1s / 1C2
