Voltage Drop Calculator. vs Mike Holt's Electrical Toolbox

Perform accurate Voltage Drop and Wire Sizing calculations for both NEC® (National Electrical Code) and IEC standards. Built for electricians, engineers, and contractors who need reliable results on the go. Voltage Drop Calculator • Dual standards: Switch between NEC (AWG/Imperial) and IEC (mm²/Metric) • Enter voltage, current, run length, and power factor • Supports continuous load (125%), grouping, and ambient temperature corrections • Copper or Aluminum conductors for single-phase and three-phase systems • Detailed results including ampacity, derating, voltage drop, and load voltage • Automatic compliance checks (e.g., ≤ 3% for branch circuits) Wire Size Calculator (Reverse) • Calculates required wire size for a target voltage drop % • Suggests optimal AWG, kcmil, or mm² • Uses NEC Chapter 9, Table 9 (AC impedance) with DC fallback Professional Tools • Wire converter (AWG/kcmil ↔ mm²) • Generate and share PDF reports • Handy electrical formula cards • Localized in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, and Chinese

Mike Holt, the industry leader in the electrical industry (MikeHolt.com) has created an amazing, practical and useful app for the electrician, inspector, instructor, contractor and engineer. The app contains conductor sizing (including voltage drop limitations), circuit protection sizing, race sizing, equipment grounding conductor sizing for electric heating equipment (commercial and Residential), air-conditioning equipment (commercial and Residential), motors (commercial and Residential), Transformers (commercial) , and dwelling-unit service calculations and sizing.
