Electrical Length Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Electrical Length (EL) is:

\[ EL = \frac{PL}{WL} \]

Where:

\( EL \) is the Electrical Length
\( PL \) is the physical length
\( WL \) is the wavelength

What is Electrical Length?

Electrical Length is a measure used in electrical engineering to describe the length of a transmission line or other structure in terms of the wavelength of the signal it carries. It is calculated by dividing the physical length of the line by the wavelength of the signal.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Physical Length (PL) = 3 meters
Wavelength (WL) = 0.5 meters

Using the formula to calculate the Electrical Length:

\[ EL = \frac{3}{0.5} = 6 \]

The Electrical Length (EL) is 6.
