Enter problem data (electric power , wire
length (1 way) , cos(f) e.t.c.) Then raise the cable size , until you
see an acceptable voltage drop (3%).
This program calculates Voltage Drop
on a cable , given the Electric Power of the consumption , or the
line current. (enter one value , the other will be automatically
calculated). Influence of temperature is taken in account.
The program is quite accurate ,
especially for cables up to 35mm2 , where inductance is negligible.
For cables larger than 35mm2 , voltage drop is calculated by taking in
account inductance of cable approximately.
Please note that this calculation is
quite accurate for voltages up to 1000V , with cables lying in the open
air , but just an approximation for greater voltages , or cables
buried in the ground.
You must also consider that the
program does not take in account special situations
