Cable Tray Fill Calc

Built for electricians, cable-tray installers, and EEs who need a quick NEC 392 fill check on the deck - not a dashboard you log into. WHAT IT DOES Computes total cable cross-section as a percentage of tray area and compares against the NEC 392 maximum fill: 50% for ladder and wire-basket trays, 40% for solid-bottom and channel trays. Flags over-fill and shows how many more cables of the same type fit before the limit.
