Voltage Drop – Calculate the maximum circuit distance and minimum conductor size for your required voltage drop Conductor Ampacity – Calculate conductor ampacities for different temperature ratings ...
As we saw in Part 1, the correct sizing of conductors is more complicated than it appears. One of the reasons is the way temperature affects the resistance of a conductor. Higher temperatures mean ...
