About Voltage drop calculator
Find how much voltage a cable loses over its length, using resistance of copper or aluminium, the current and the run. The drop is current times resistance, doubled for the out and back path. Many codes recommend keeping it under about 3 to 5 percent, and thicker cable reduces it.
How to use Voltage drop calculator
- Choose copper or aluminium and enter the cable size.
- Enter the cable length, current and supply voltage.
- Read the voltage drop and whether the cable is thick enough.

Frequently asked questions
How can I reduce voltage drop in a long cable?
Use a thicker conductor, shorten the run, or raise the supply voltage. Copper has lower resistance than aluminium of the same size.
What voltage drop is acceptable?
Many standards suggest keeping it within a few percent of the supply voltage, but limits differ by country and use. Check your local wiring rules.
Do I count the cable length one way or both?
Current flows out and back, so the circuit uses twice the one-way distance. Check how the tool asks for length and enter it accordingly.
Is Voltage drop calculator free?
