Thanks for pointing me to THIS video Dave! I know that volt drop formula off by heart now! I found this video very helpful indeed also for knowing WHICH TABLE to look at for calculating voltage drops in circuits regarding 70 degrees Celsius flat twin and earth cable. (Quickest way to find this table (4D5) is to look it up in the TABLE OF TABLES section in the brown book (after going there from the Contents page on page 3 of the book). Thanks again for this! Your RUclips channel and your website is an absolutely superb resource for quckly and easily being able ot learn how to become a much better and more knowledgeable professional electrician.
Hey chap, your videos are top notch! I am currently studying with a training provider that shall remain nameless and i wish i had found you first. your style is succinct and extremely well laid out, it makes learning so efficient. thanks so much
Thanks for the really great support, appreciated. If my videos help you to get more out of your course, that is great. Good luck and keep learning, it's a good trade to be in.
hello I've come across your videos as I'm training to be a spark can you please tell me how you come to find the top number in the voltage drop formula please
The number 44 is the reference number for 1mm copper conductor. It will drop 44mV per amp per metre. This is found in the voltage drop data for the copper conductors in the Wiring Regs book, Appx 4.
Just checked the video and no, it is calculated for 40 metres. Your answer should be 7.2 volts as per the slide. Hope this helps and thanks for watching. Dave.
Wrong value in the equation. You've put 60 instead of 40. On the the plus side, its helped me remember the formula. So, not sure if you did it on purpose, lol.
Exactly what I needed for my upcoming exams. I've told the rest of the class too. We might as well all learn from the channel.
Thanks for the positive feedback, really appreciated. Dave.

Glad it was helpful Gary and your comments are appreciated. The next video is also about volts drop and R1+R2 calculations, which you might enjoy.

Thanks to dave videos. They made my exam super easy 😀 thank you
Great to know, thankyou.
Hi Dave!
You are brilliant at explaining everything in such great simple detail!
Excellent!

Glad you liked it Malachy, really appreciated comments.
Q2 you put 60 instead of 40 for cable length
Thanks for spotting that, I've corrected it. It should be 40 metres. I can't even think of an excuse why that happened, but thanks. Dave.
@@learnelectrics4402 Loving the videos, but it still has 60 rather than 40 in the populated equation.

Excellent video thank you
Thanks Azizur, thanks for watching. Dave.

Question 2 states 40m length of cable but your calculation shows 60m.
