Colleagues:

We have a voltage drop spread sheet on our web site.  Excuse any immodesty, 
but we feel it is superior to any others we have seen for several reasons, 
including the spreadsheet allows you to judge a range of wire sizes in one 
glance and you are not limited to standard voltage (120, 240, etc) like 
other charts.  I have recently updated the sheet I use to also account for 
temperature and conduit fill.  The newest version is on the web yet, but I 
will get it there in the next few days.  IN the meantime, the tried and 
true tool is at: http://mpandc.com/resources/resources.html  It is about 
the fourth item down.

I have heard from many installers and designers that they use the sheet and 
no one has complained of any inaccuracies.  But, as always, you are 
responsible for verifying your results.

Good luck,

William Miller
