Enter Device's Power Consumption Requirements and Distance (in feet).
To calculate wire gage, select your desired measurement type, enter a power consumption value, and cable distance. Then click on the Calculate button.
Measurement type:
Standard
Metric
Power Consumption =
Watts
Calculated Wire Gage Required:
AWG
Cable Distance =
Feet
Allowable Cable Voltage Loss =
%
Source Voltage Amplitude =
VAC
Calculated Properties:
Calculated Current =
Amps
Calculated Allowable Resistance =
Ohms
Calculated Ohms per 1000 Feet =
Ohms/1000 feet
Optional Calculation:
After calculating wire required, enter the AWG value and repress Calculate button again.
A DESIRED wire gage
AWG would allow a max distance of
Feet
