Electrical Calculations Sheet -Main



  • This Calculations Spreadsheets will determine the capacitor kVAR required to improve PF of a single load or entire power system. Actual power factor, peak kilowatt demand and desired PF are required. The best source of this information is the monthly utility bill or other local monitoring equipment. A calculation of each months data for a 12 month period is recommended to determine the maximum kVAR required. 

 
 


  • This Calculations Spreadsheets will calculate all the required values for a motor ( single or three phase) after putting the input information and can also calculate the wire and conduit sizes plus the voltage drop in these wires.

 
 


  • This transformer Calculations Spreadsheets will calculate the following:
     
    - Primary current, FLA
    - Secondary current, FLA
    - Primary Fuse Rating Max & Min
    - Secondary Breaker
    - Fault Duty, Primary
    - Fault Duty, Secondary
    - Calculated RMS Current, FLA
    - Calculated Harmonic Factor

  • This lighting Calculations Spreadsheets will Estimate number of fixtures needed to light an indoor area based on room cavity method, these This lighting Calculations Spreadsheets are very useful tool for lighting design for both beginners and professional engineers.

 
 


  • This short circuit calculation spreadsheet estimates available fault currents for three phase systems. The calculation of motor contribution in this calculator is approximate only – systems with large motor contribution, high X/R conditions, and closed transition paralleled sources or high impedance grounding will require a more accurate calculation method.
     


 
  • The residential load calculation worksheet calculates the electrical demand load in accordance with NEC Article 220. The worksheet helps to provide an accurate, consistent, and simplified method of determining the minimum size electrical service for a new or existing dwelling looking to add additional electrical load. DEMAND load takes into account various probabilities of simultaneous operation of electrical appliances and yielding a safe, efficient and cost effective electric service. The Worksheet provides economic, as well as safety benefits. It helps to prevent oversizing service, which costs more money, and undersizing service, which is a safety/fire hazard.



 
This voltage drop calculator will provide an approximate value for use in project design and it is based on the following public domain formula and This spreadsheet includes three different worksheets as follows:
1-Voltage Drop Calculator worksheet
2-Summary worksheet
3-Information worksheet

 
 
 
IEC Motor Data Calculator spreadsheet includes three different worksheets as follows:
1- Motor calculator worksheet
2- Wire, cable and voltage drop calculator worksheet
3- Instruction and notes worksheet
I explained before the Motor Data Calculator as per NEMA standard products and today, I will explain another Motor Data Calculator but as per IEC code products.
 
 
 
 
 
 
in this Tools and Spreadsheets, I will explain the following:
Part One: What is selective coordination? 
Part Two: NEC code and Selective Coordination
Part Three: Method of performing a selectivity coordination study
  • First: By using Selective Coordination Time - Current Curves
  • second: By using Selective Coordination Charts/Tables.
  • By using Siemens calculators / spreadsheets.
