Parallel Resistance Calculator
The parallel, or shunt, resistance calculator can calculate the equivalent resistance of 2 to 4 parallel resistances. The units will be consistant for all calcultion (results will be in kohms for kohm input values).
| Input single resistor: |
For example: for four resistors with values 10Ω, 20Ω, 30Ω, and 40Ω
in parallel, the resistance
R equivalent is calculated as follows:
1 / Requivalent
= 1 / 10 +1 / 20 +1 / 30 +1 / 40
1 / Requivalent = 25/120
R equivalent=
4.8Ω
