please re-ask the question this is design or actual measuring?
first, if ti is a design use cable manufacturer catalogue exactly to determine the maximum voltage drop.
second, if ti is an existing project use voltmeter to determine the actual voltage drop.
check the approved catalog for cables & approved branch loads for all the systems by knowning the Routing method, V.D cab be calculated very easily & in a Quick manner. Use ECODIAL by Schienider or DOCWIN by ABB for Advance calculation.
"ohms to neutral per1,000 ft" is1.1 ohms. To complete the numerator, multiply as follows: (2 x0.866) x200 ft x1.1 ohms x20A =7620.8 Dividing7621 by1000 ft gives a voltage drop of7.7V. This drop is acceptable for our480V circuit. A No.12 would drop11.8V. Boost the length to500 ft, and that No.10 drops18V; the No.12 drops29V.
check the technical catalog of the cable manufacturer, they give you the voltage drop per length unit, just multiply it with your actual cable length
reading the cable manufactorer catalogue/data sheet
Use Ecodial Free Software from Schneider
There is a formula you can apply to determine this
A current source has its voltage defined by its load. V=IZ.A voltage source has its current defined by its load. I=V/Z.
one of cable characteristic is voltage drop as mV/A.m, obtained from cable datasheet, multiplying this value in the actual length and in demand current ( net current after taking all design factors into account).
