WCW Voltage Drop Calculator vs Voltage Drop.

The Windy City Wire Voltage Drop Calculator is a user-friendly tool designed to help you quickly and accurately determine the voltage drop in your electrical circuits. By selecting the conductor material (copper or aluminum), choosing the appropriate wire size, and inputting the voltage, phase, circuit length in feet, and load in amperes, you can easily calculate the voltage drop, percentage voltage drop, and the voltage at the end of the circuit. This ensures your installations meet safety standards and perform efficiently.

Voltage Drop is a practical electrical calculation toolkit for electrical engineers, technicians, electricians, and students. Three tools in one: • VOLTAGE DROP CALCULATOR — Computes voltage drop for single/three-phase and copper/aluminum, and checks the result against your chosen 1.5%, 3% or 5% limit. It recommends the minimum cross-section that satisfies BOTH the voltage-drop limit and the current-carrying capacity. • CABLE SIZING — Finds the smallest cable cross-section required for your load and line, and lists the cable types available in that size. • CABLE CATALOG — Provides the technical features of common low-voltage cables (NYA, NYAF, NYM, H05VV-F, NYY, NAYY, NHXMH, N2XH, N2XH FE180), including current-carrying capacity tables per cross-section (in air / in conduit / in ground), right inside the app. FEATURES • Single-phase and three-phase systems • Copper and aluminum conductor support • 1.5% / 3% / 5% voltage-drop limit check with cross-section recommendation • "Suitable cables" suggestion after each calculation, with one-tap access to cable details • Cable technical-feature tables (including halogen-free cables) • Calculation history: save, reopen, delete • Works fully offline, ad-free • 9 language support PRIVACY The app does not collect any personal data. No account is required, and the values you enter never leave your device.
