The document discusses how to calculate voltage drop for a single phase system using a basic voltage drop formula. It provides the formula and defines the terms used such as length of service drop, resistance of conductor wire, and total load amps. As an example, it calculates the voltage drop and voltage regulation for a system using copper and aluminum conductors.

>> Voltage Drop (VD) = 200% x L x Rw x Itotal Where: L = Length of the Service Drop Aneco Feeder=30mtrs Rw =Resistance of the Conductor wire (from PEC-1 , 2017, Table 10.1.1.8 page941) Rw#14.00mm2 Copper= 0.51Ώ/305m Rw#14.00mm2 Aluminum= 0.808Ώ/305m I-total = Total Load Amps of the System From Schedule of Loads section#4 Thus Itotal= 40.5 Amps To solve the VD of the Main Feeder Service Drop VD(copper)= 200% x (30m) x (0.51Ώ/305m) x 40.50 4.1 volts VOLTAGE REGULATION %= 1.00/230Volts x 100% = 1.77 % VD(Aluminum)= 200% x (30m) x (0.808Ώ/305m) x40.50 4.3 volts VOLTAGE REGULATION %= 3.4/230Volts x 100% = 1.9 %
