Extending a circuit and limiting voltage drop


Step 1: Phase Specify whether the calculation is for single-phase (1∅) or three-phase (3∅).
1.1	Phase	Single-phase (1∅) Three-phase (3∅)
Step 2: Wire Select the appropriate information on the medium being used.
2.1	Wire size
2.2	Wire material	Copper Aluminum
Step 3: Load This satisfies I and D.
3.1	Load at 100%	Volts
3.2	The current distance of the load from the power supply
Step 4: Permitted Voltage Drop Input the total permitted voltage drop.
4.1	Permitted VD
Step 5: Extended Wire Material Select the appropriate wire material for the extension.
5.1	Wire material extension	Copper Aluminum
Step 6: Extended Distance This satisfies the extended distance requirement.
6.1	The extended distance of the load from the power supply
Step 7: Solve
7.1	Proof steps	Show proof steps
7.2	Solve for Extended Conductor Size
