- NEC Chapter 9, Table 4: Internal conduit dimensions and cross-sectional areas
- NEC Chapter 9, Table 5: Wire dimensions including insulation for various conductor types
- NEC Article 310.15(C)(1): Ampacity derating factors for bundled conductors
⚠️ Important Disclaimer: While we strive for accuracy, this calculator is intended as a planning tool. Always consult with a licensed electrician and verify compliance with local electrical codes before performing electrical work.
