you enter the one-way distance and it figures it out for you. If using a
reference sheet such as Windy’s old Universal Wire Sizing Chart (copy
attached with a tip ‘o the hat to Michael W), you follow what the sheet
says (one way distance for this particular version). If working from NEC
Table 8 then you use round trip distance for non-3 phase, but <st1:PersonName

I’ll not repeat. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
