Volt Drop

E.F.U.S. Voltage Drop Calculator

 

E.F.U.S. voltage drop calculator calculates circuit voltage drop based on user entered data and conditions.  Selections are made by convenient drop down lists and data entry boxes.  Calculations are made based on NEC data and guidelines.  If voltage drop exceeds 3% of supply the user is warned by  red "percentage" answer fields.  Supports decimal precision.

The following formulas are used to calculate circuit voltage drop.

AC Voltage Drop

Zc=(R x cos(phase angle))+XL x sin(phase angle)

Single Phase

VD=Zc x (length/1000) x amps

Three Phase Line To Line

VD=line to neutral voltage drop x square root of 3

DC Voltage Drop

VD=(2 x Length x Resistance x Amps)/1000

Where

VD=voltage drop  Zc=corrected impedance  R=conductor resistance Phase Angle=power factor phase angle (in degrees)  XL= reactance  Amps=circuit load in amps  Resistance=conductor resistance Length=one way length of circuit
