Wire & Cable Size Calculator (Copper & Aluminum)


Wire & Cable Size Calculator (Copper & Aluminum)


Today, we are here with another comprehensive Copper and aluminum wire size calculator
As we have discussed in detail the topic of “How to calculate the proper wire size forElectrical Wiring. Now you can take the advantage of this calculator to do this job J
Calculating Wire/Cable Size formula for single Phase Circuits
Wire Circular mils =2 x ρ x I x L / (%Allowable Voltage drop of source voltage)  

Calculating Wire/Cable Size formula for Three Phase Circuits

Wire Circular mils =√3 x 2 x ρ x I x L / (%Allowable Voltage drop of source voltage)  
Where;
ρ = Specific resistance or resistivity of Conductor
D = Distance in Feet (One way) i.e. ½ the total circuit length
I = Load Current
Note: the Value of ρ = Specific resistance or resistivity of Conductor is used here for copper and aluminum is 11.2 and 17.4 respectively at 53° C (127° F)
 
  • Also check the “Good to know” Section after the calculator.


Enter value, And click on calculate. Result will show the required quantity.
