Frequently Asked Questions

1. How accurate is this electrical load calculator?

While our calculator provides a good estimate based on typical usage patterns and standard appliance ratings, actual loads may vary. We recommend having a licensed electrician perform an on-site calculation for exact measurements.

2. Why do I need to calculate my electrical load?

Calculating your electrical load helps prevent overloading your electrical panel, which can cause circuit breakers to trip or create fire hazards. It's essential when adding new appliances or planning renovations.

3. When should I consider a panel upgrade?

If your calculator results show you're approaching or exceeding your panel's capacity, or if you're planning to add major appliances like an EV charger or hot tub, you should consider a panel upgrade.
