- AWG gauge: diameter, section and metric equivalentConvert an AWG gauge to diameter and cross-section, or a diameter in mm to the closest AWG, by the exact formula of the standard.
- Battery runtimeConvert Ah to Wh, compute a battery’s runtime under a load or the capacity to plan, with usable share and efficiency.
- Cable sizing and voltage dropCompute a cable’s voltage drop (ΔU = 2ρLI/S) or the cross-section to plan, copper or aluminium, cold or under load, with the recommended commercial size.
- Electricity consumptionConvert an appliance’s power and usage time into kilowatt-hours and cost: per day, over the period, and as a yearly projection.
- Ohm’s law and power: U, I, R, PEnter any two of voltage, current, resistance and power: the other two are computed.
- RC circuit charge and dischargeTime constant, voltage and current at a given instant, charge, energy, and the time to reach a target voltage.
- Resistor colour code, reading and lookupRead a 4 or 5 band code to its value, or find the bands for a wanted value, projected onto the normalised E24 or E96 series.
- Resistors and capacitors in series and parallelEquivalent resistance or capacitance of a series or parallel combination, plus the voltage divider. With the duality explained and the loading trap.
