# What are the heating effects of the electric current?
When a current flows through a conductor, heat energy generates in the conductor. The heating effects of electric current depend on three factors:
- The resistance of the conductor. A higher resistance produces more heat.
- The time for which the current flows. The longer the time the amount of heat production is high.
- Higher the current the amount of heat generation is also large.
Hence the heating effect produced by an electric current, I through a conductor of resistance, R for a time, t is given by H = I²Rt. This equation is the Joule’s equation of electrical heating.
Joule’s law states the amount of heat production in a conductor is :
- Directly proportional to the square of electric current flowing through it.
- Is directly proportional to the resistance of the conductor.
- Directly proportional to the time for which electric current flows through the conductor.
