Free shareware wire sizing program

[drewpster]

A couple of years ago I stumbled over this free downloadable program that calculates the proper wire gauge to use in a given circuit. It is offered by Alden Trull of Belfast, Maine. This marine based program uses your input circuit length and load and calculates the proper wire size. It is easy to use and takes the mystery out of the question "What size wire should I use?".
Considering the marine environment, the program also calculates voltage drop and compensates for the number of wires in a given bundle.
I have the older 2.0 version but Mr. Trull has a newer 3.1 version that contains even more information. It is also free!
My thanks to Alden Trull for offering this program. I highly recommend it for your re-wire project.

Software isn't needed anyway! Simply type "ampacity charts" into your browser to get a number of wire sizing charts.

I am not sure what is wrong with the link to the 3.1 version but the 2.0 version still works. Go to the 2.0 page and scroll down to the 2.0 download if you want to give it a try.
