Understanding Current, Voltage, Resistance, and Electricity Consumption

The physical relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is described by Ohm's Law: V = I × R
Where:

• V = Voltage (Volts, V)
• I = Current (Amperes, A)
• R = Resistance (Ohms, Ω)

Electricity Consumption

The amount of electricity consumed is measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh).
Energy (kWh) = Power (kW) × Time (h)

1. Calculate Power using P = V × I
2. Convert Power to kilowatts: 1 kW = 1000 W
3. Multiply by time in hours to get energy consumed.

Summary

• Higher voltage or lower resistance increases current.
• More current means more electricity consumed over time.
• Electricity bills are based on energy consumed (kWh).
