When dealing with solar and 12V systems, the first thing we often look at in terms of wiring is the current or amperage rating. However an area that isn't at first obvious is the voltage drop. Using the Voltage Drop Calculator / DC Voltage Drop Calculator the voltage drop can be calculated given the length, cross section and current. For low voltage systems the voltage drop can be quite significant meaning that some appliance won't work as expected... The Voltage Drop Calculator / DC Voltage Drop Calculator is a tool which will help you determine the voltage drop and thus the impact on your system. Using a trial and error approach with the Voltage Drop Calculator / DC Voltage Drop Calculator you can use the Voltage Drop Calculator to help determine the cross section of the wire you need... Length is the length in metres for the single run of wire. There's no need to think of the return wire as this is taken into account for you with the Voltage Drop Calculator / DC Voltage Drop..
