Fundamentals

Here are some notes on the fundamentals of electricity and some reference items:

Resistance Ohms R
Current Amps I
Voltage Volts V
Power Watts P
Capacitance Farads F

The relationship between these is fundamental to electronics and the basic law (Ohm's law) is:

Voltage = Current * Resistance

or

V = IR

To derive the power being used we can multiply the pressure by the flow or the voltage by the amps:

Power = Volts * Amps

or

P = VI
