Series Resistance Calculator



Formula

To calculate the equivalent resistance of resistors in series:

R=r1+r2+r3++rx

Where:

Series Resistance Definition

Series resistance is defined as two or more components in a circuit that have resistance and are aligned in series.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Sum the resistances:

R=5+10+15=30 Ω

The equivalent resistance is 30 Ω.
