Standards-Grounded Physics

Calculations reference official published standards: National Electrical Code (NEC Chapter 9 Table 8 & 310.16), American Boat & Yacht Council (ABYC E-11 Table 6B), IEEE 1547, and DIN 46228. Uncoated copper conductor resistance uses 12.9 Ω•cmil/ft at 75°C.

100% Client-Side Privacy

Every calculation executes locally in your browser with vanilla JavaScript. Your system parameters, load profiles, and design specs are not sent to our server. The site uses Google Analytics 4 (first-party cookies) to measure traffic; see the privacy policy.

Transparent Math & Errata

All equations, thermal derating factors, and safety margins are explicitly documented with step-by-step mathematical proofs. We actively maintain an open engineering errata channel at errata@currentspec.com.
