Feeder and Service Load Calculations

Design Master Electrical can perform complete feeder and service load calculations based upon NEC 220.40. It can also perform the optional calculations in NEC 220.80.

The following articles in the knowledge base provide more information on the settings needed to perform these calculations:

• Feeder and Service Load Calculations: Use the references in this article when you need to match your NEC section to a Design Master Electrical load calculation, or vice-versa.

• Electrical Load Type Explanations: A description of each load type and how it is used in the model.

These articles assume a complete understanding of all of the features in Design Master Electrical. We recommend finishing the tutorials first before reading them. They will make more sense after you have learned to use the rest of the software.
