AC Power

Hey All, In this episode I touch on some AC Power concepts, including split phase power, what is RMS, and how to calculate how much power you need. You can rearrange Ohms Law (V = I * R or V = R * I) to solve for Current (I) or Resistance (R) as follows. I = V/R and R = V/I You can then rearrange the Power Law (P = V * I or P = I * V) to solve for Voltage (V) or Current (I) as follows. V = P / I and I = P / V Then you can subsitute Ohms law into the Power law like so P = V * (V / R) = V^2 / R and P = I * (I * R) = I^2 * R Have a great week p.s. If I do make a mistake, or say something in error. Please feel free to point it out in the comments.
