Probably one of the better "simple" electrical charts I've seen in a while.

Please post the chart that's in English.

Who needs a reference chart for that? Do you have a chart of the alphabet or how to write in cursive too?

Uh...that would have come in handy for physics. Not everyone is awesome at everything all the time.

Using I for amps threw me off at first. I was thinking impedence but that was R for resitance. why didn't it use A for amps ?

we're not all doctors ;) and after a few too many beers...well...

Looks like it came directly out of my Ugly's book...and it really is a useful chart.

This is the only one you need:

E

"-----"
I | R

(damn, I hate this editor.)

Cover up the one you don't know and the answer is the other 2. Examples for the electronically challenged:

Amps (I): Cover up the I and the answer is E / R. Voltage (Electromotive Force): Cover up the E and the answer is I*R.

Power (Watts) = Amps * Volts ( I * E ). Everything after that is Jr. High math.

what goes in the "-----" ?

And who says we all went to Jr high?

Put your thumb over the one you don't know.

P=I x V and V = I x R are all you need to know -- substitute as needed to get you what you need..............

Yup, and "PIE" is power (I couldn't find one that was a circle):

Only thing is, if you're going from knowing resistance to figuring power (or vice versa), you have to use both circles.

no big deal that .... just very basic HS math (arithmetic for those with a math phobia.... )
