Voltage Drop Calculator

Estimate cable voltage drop from current, length, conductor temperature and number of loaded cores. Use it as a quick design check for single- or three-phase runs.

Important disclaimer

This tool only calculates voltage drop. It does not indicate which conductor size is suitable for the specified current. If you want to find a suitable cable for a particular load or current, use the Cable Selector tool. Cable Selector.

Engineering note

  • This is a fast design aid, not a replacement for a full code-compliance calculation.
  • Grouping, installation method, harmonic content, exact cable construction and local standards can change the real result.
  • Use the manufacturer datasheet and applicable standard before final release.
Inside KKE Circuit

Automatic wire and cable sizing while you draw

This tool checks one run. KKE Circuit checks every cable in your drawing automatically, with live updates as loads, lengths and components change.

Voltage-drop check

Length-aware voltage-drop calculation flags any run that would exceed the drop target you define.

Cable schedule export

Generate cable schedules automatically from the drawing with tags, routes, sizes and lengths.

Wire list and terminal list

Keep wire numbering, terminal strips and reports synchronized with the latest revision.

Cable totals in the BOM

Roll cable lengths and part selections into procurement-ready bills of materials.

IEC and ANSI symbol support

Use one software environment for projects that ship across different drawing standards.

Real-time collaboration

Work with multiple engineers on the same project with revision history and shared ownership.
