Electrical Measurement, Ohm’s Law, & Watt’s Law CVSD Electronics 1 Resistance A measure of the opposition to the flow of electrons (current) through a material Unit of Measurement: Ohm (Ω) Symbol: R = Resistance Current A measure of the total amount of electrons flowing in a circuit in a given unit of time Unit of Measurement: Ampere (A) Symbol: I = Intensity Voltage A measure of the Electromotive Force (EMF) or pressure that pushes electrons through a circuit Unit of Measurement: Volt (V) Symbol: E = Electromotive Force Power A measurement of the rate of consuming energy, transferring energy, or doing work Unit of Measurement: Watt (W) Symbol: P Ohm’s Law Describes the mathematical relationship between resistance, current, and voltage Voltage (E) = Amperage (I) x Resistance (R) With two of these values, you can use Ohm’s Law to find the third Variations of Ohm’s Law E = IxR I = E/R R = E/I Ohm’s Law Example E = 24 VDC I=? R = 12 Ω Calculations E=IR 24=Ix12 I = 24/12 I=2A Watt’s Law Describes the mathematical relationship between power, current, and voltage Power (P) = Amperage (I) x Voltage (E) With two of these values, you can use Watt’s Law to find the third Variations of Watt’s Law P = IE I = P/E E = P/I Watt’s Law Example P = 36 W I=? E = 12 V Calculations P=IE 36=Ix12 I = 36/12 I=3W Combinations of Ohm’s and Watt’s Laws Measuring Resistance with the DMM Must select Ohmmeter Range (Ω) Pos (+) lead must be in Volt/ Ohm pin Sat meter to proper range Must wire in parallel with circuit Power must be removed from the circuit Measuring Voltage with the DMM Must select DC Voltage Range Pos (+) lead must be in Volt/ Ohm pin Set meter to proper range Must wire in parallel with the circuit Circuit must be have power Measuring Current with the DMM Must select DC Current Range Set meter to proper range. (meter can be damaged if not set to the proper range) Must wire in series with the circuit Circuit must be have power Measured Tolerance Predicted values, and measured values may not always be exactly the same There is unaccounted for resistance in the wires etc. Applied voltage may fluctuate Human error may disturb measurements Components have tolerance (not always exact values) As components change temperature, resistance may also change Review State Ohm’s Law State Watt’s Law How is voltage measured? How is resistance measured? How is current Measured? Why do predicted and calculated values differ?
