Wire gauge calculator

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:
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
