Jinsi ya kukokotoa Voltage Drop

Voltage Drop ni nini?

Voltage Drop Calculator helps contractors and tradespeople accurately size, spec, and estimate materials and systems.

Fomula

VD = (2 × K × I × L) / CM where K=12.9(Cu), I=amps, L=feet, CM=circular mils

Mwongozo wa Hatua kwa Hatua

  1. 1Enter circuit amps, one-way distance, and wire gauge circular mils
  2. 2Apply the formula using your project measurements
  3. 3Add required safety factors or waste allowances per code

Mifano Iliyotatuliwa

Ingizo
15A, 100 ft, 12 AWG (6530 CM)
Matokeo
VD = (2×12.9×15×100)/6530 = 5.94V = 4.95% (max 3% recommended)

Makosa ya Kawaida ya Kuepuka

  • Not applying code-required safety factors or derating
  • Forgetting to account for waste and cut losses in material estimates
