Below are handy calculators. The AWG Sizing Calculator helps you select correct cabling. The Off-Grid Load & System Sizer calculator sums up your total Wh/day, estimating common loads, and you can refine duty and average hours of use. The Voltage Drop Calculator compares different Cable/wire sizes (AWG) to their voltage drops over a specfic Distance. The Solar Sizing Estimator uses ProjectSunroof data to estimate either residental or mobile solar fesibility, size and cost. Use these tools at your own risk.

Values marked “AC” assume 60 Hz single-phase. “DC” for battery/solar systems. One-way Length (ft) Calculator uses round-trip length internally. Current (A) Conductor Copper Aluminum

Target Voltage Drop (%) Common design target is 3% or less. Max Temperature Rise consideration Typical Hot Environment Hot environments can justify upsizing one gauge.
