Its ok, but there are apps that include conductor fill, ambient temperature and insulation type as variables plus the calculations seem a bit funky. Download "mobile electrican" (free) and "conduit bender elite" (a few bucks) and you will save time and money.

Tried it for kicks, and for 15 feet, 24 volt thermostat wire should not be 10awg...LOL

the app looks good and isn't always wrong but for some calculations it's simply useless. f.ex. 14.5v 3000w 4m shows awg size non existing..

Claims I need 1/0 when NEC says 3awg. Can't imagine how many people wasted money or are in danger using this app.

220 volts 4300 watt 10 feet distance it shows copper wire cross sectional area. 0.34 sq mm it's very wrong. Where as for 4500 watts it shows 2.08 sq mm wire which is quite right.

This is an app that you didn't know you needed 'till you actually downloaded and used it. Helps all in the electrical field from the new guy to the seasoned veteran. Definitely worth the download.

Reading some of these reviews makes me realize that some of the people using this number 1 have no true electrical installation experience, number 2 do not understand any electrical theory.
