Inverter & Battery Backup Calculator
Calculate backup time and find the right inverter and battery bank for your power requirements.
Formula
Inverter VA:
Load ÷ (0.8 × 0.85) × 1.20
Backup Time:
(Battery Ah × System Voltage × 0.75) ÷ Load
Required Battery Ah:
(Load × Desired Backup Hours) ÷ (System Voltage × 0.75)
System Voltage:
Based on connected load range.
Solar Panel Size Calculator
Calculate the required solar system capacity and number of panels based on your energy consumption.
Formula
Solar Capacity Needed:
Daily Energy Consumption ÷ (Peak Sun Hours × 0.75)
Total Panels:
(Solar Capacity × 1000) ÷ Panel Wattage
Installed Capacity:
(Total Panels × Panel Wattage) ÷ 1000
Electrical Load Calculator
Calculate your total electrical load in watts, kilowatts, and equivalent horsepower.
Formula
DC:
P = V × I
AC Single Phase:
P = V × I × PF
AC Three Phase:
P = 1.732 × V × I × PF
Kilowatts:
kW = Watts ÷ 1000
Horsepower:
HP = Watts ÷ 746
MCB Size Calculator
Estimate the appropriate MCB rating based on your electrical load, system type, and safety margin.
Formula
Single Phase Current:
I = P ÷ (230 × PF)
Three Phase Current:
I = P ÷ (1.732 × 415 × PF)
Target Current:
Operating Current × 1.25
MCB Rating:
Next standard MCB rating above target current
Energy Consumption Calculator
Calculate electricity consumption and estimate your electricity bill from appliance usage.
Formula
Energy Consumption:
(Appliance Watts × Daily Hours × Billing Days) ÷ 1000
Electricity Cost:
Energy Consumption × Tariff Rate
1 Unit:
1 Unit = 1 kWh
House Wire Size mm Calculator
Calculate the required wire size based on electrical load, distance, voltage, and safety requirements.
Enter the surrounding temperature where the cable will be installed.
Formula
Wire Size Formula
Idesign = Iload × (1 + SF / 100)
Irequired = Idesign / Ktotal
Size = Irequired / Density
Symbol Definitions
Iload = Load Current (A)
SF = Safety Factor (%)
Ktotal = Temperature Derating Factor
Density = Allowable Current Density (A/mm²)
V = Supply Voltage (V)
L = Cable Length (m)

This is an estimated wire size based on the supplied load, ambient temperature,
and safety factor. Final cable selection should also consider voltage drop,
installation method, cable insulation, grouping, and applicable electrical standards.
