• Cable derating and current capacity from Table 4D1A with Ca, Cg and Ci
US, NEC
• Wire sizer with continuous loads, terminal ratings, 240.4(D) small conductor limits and 3% voltage drop

Every result shows its working. Share it, or save it to a job.
Electrician Calculator Pro is a one-time purchase that adds:
• Unlimited cable sizer (the free version includes 3 sizes)
• Every saved result, grouped by job (the free version opens the newest 3)
• PDF job reports to send or keep with your paperwork
Paths the app does not cover, such as UK conduit fill, 90°C thermosetting and aluminium Iz, twin and earth tables and earth fault loop impedance, are left out rather than guessed. Use the IET On-Site Guide and the full standards alongside the app and your own judgement on site.
