About

Voltage Drop.

Features
Read full description

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.

About

Voltage Drop Pro

Features
Read full description

Voltage Drop Pro calculates voltage drop per NEC 2023 Article 210.19 and 215.2 — the code sections that determine if your conductor run keeps voltage drop within acceptable limits. Works offline. No subscription. One-time purchase. WHAT IT CALCULATES - Branch circuits (210.19) and feeders (215.2) - Copper (K=10.4) and aluminum (K=17.0) conductors at 75°C - All wire sizes — 14 AWG through 500 kcmil - System voltages from 120V to 480V VERDICTS BACKED BY CODE Compares your voltage drop percentage against the NEC-recommended 3% branch/feeder max and 5% combined max. Get an instant PASS or FAIL — with the actual voltage drop, margin, and wire data shown. BUILT FOR THE FIELD No ads. No cloud. No account required. Designed for electricians who need the answer in seconds, not after a signup flow. PART OF THE FIELDMETRIC SUITE Also available: Box Fill Pro (NEC box fill) and Conduit Fill Pro (NEC conduit fill calculations).

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Voltage Drop. at none against Voltage Drop Pro's 1. Voltage Drop. also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
