Hey, I'm Vince

I can help with voltage drop, ampacity, conduit fill, house and apartment load calculations, code lookups, and burial depths. What are you working on?

How far can I run #12 copper at 20A 120V?

What size conduit for 3x #3 RW90?

House load calc for 2000 sqft with electric heat

What does Rule 26-724 say?

What size conduit for 3x #3 RW90?

Thinking...

Conduit Fill — Minimum Size — PVC rigid (OESC 2024)

Parameter	Value
Conductors	3 × #3 RW90
Raceway type	PVC rigid
Total conductor area	186.00 mm² (0.2883 in²)
Minimum trade size	27 (1")
Fill at minimum size	36.7% (compliant)
Next size up	35 (1-1/4")

No bond included in this fill calculation (Ontario-first V1).

Reference: Table 6, OESC 2024.

A 1" PVC works for 3× #3 RW90, sitting at 36.7% fill. That's for PVC rigid — if you're running EMT or RMC, let me know and I'll check those sizes.

For a 100A circuit, Table 16 gives you a minimum #8 copper or #6 aluminum bonding conductor.

What Vince does

Code lookup

Ask in plain English. Vince finds the rule, paraphrases it, and surfaces 2024 amendments so you don't miss what changed.

Sections 2–32, Section 68, 2024 amendments merged.

Load calcs

Single dwelling and multi-unit calculations done the way the Code expects. Voltage drop, ampacity, conduit fill, transformers — covered.

Rule 8-200 · Rule 8-202 · Table D3 · Tables 2 & 4.

Tables, on demand

Ampacity, conduit fill, burial depth, transformer secondary protection. No more flipping pages on the truck.

75°C column for ampacity. Always.
