How to use the Adiabatic Calculator
Using this Adiabatic Equation Calculator couldn’t be any easier, just enter the voltage and Zs/Ze values, then select an option from the down down options.
- Enter the voltage to earth (Uo) value.
- Enter the circuit Zs or Ze value.
- Select a protective device.
- Select a device rating.
- Select a conductor type
- Select a conductor material.
- Tap calculate.
BS 7671 states, the cross-sectional area of each protective conductor, other than a protective bonding conductor, shall be:
- Calculated in accordance with regulation 543.1.3 or
- Selected in accordance with regulation 543.1.4
This Adiabatic Equation Calculator is designed to assist in satisfying option i. above.
