For computer
If you are looking for a program on a PC that will help with the selectionsection of the wire, we recommend to stop your choice either on the product from Atlas - "cable v2.1" or on an equally convenient service called "Electric".
We personally use the program "cable v2.1" in our work for calculations, which can be downloaded for free, without registrations and other inconveniences. The interface of the service is quite simple and convenient, it is enough just to add your initial data to the table and click on the "Calculate" button. Although this software package does not have a lot of options, it's absolutely correct to select the cable cross-section for power, length or current load, which is the main requirement.
More versatile program for calculation - "Electric".It can also be downloaded for free from any of the sites you like. The undoubted superiority of this project is a wide range of possibilities."Electrician" allows not only to make the right choice of the conductor section in the apartment or for the electric motor, but also to determine the heating of the cable line, as well as the voltage loss in the circuit. In addition, using this project, you can choose the cross section of the power cable even with sectoral cores, the formulas for which are more complex. As for convenience, the interface is as simple as the service from Atlanta. See how to use the program you can on the video instructions below.
If you do not want to download any software packages on your computer, you can use the online calculator - the program "Wiresel", which will also select the appropriate cable correctly and in a short time!
