Working Principle

The calculator calculates the power loss in an AC circuit using the formula:

Power Loss (P_loss) = Current (I)² * Resistance (R)

Where the resistance (R) is calculated as:

R = Voltage (V) / Current (I)

This formula helps in understanding the energy losses in the circuit, which is crucial for designing efficient electrical systems.
