Calculation Part: For 58 watts lighting: Amps = Watts Volts = 58 240 = 0.24 From table, select 1 mm2 c.s.a. Staircase: Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = (44 x 0.24 x 2.0) 1000 = 0.021 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 1 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory. For 60 watts lighting: Amps = Watts Volts = 60 240 = 0.25 From table, select 1 mm2 c.s.a. Terrance: Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = (44 x 0.25 x 4.0) 1000 = 0.044 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 1 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory. Bath: Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = (44 x 0.25 x 3.0) 1000 = 0.033 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 1 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory. Master Bath: Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = (44 x 0.25 x 4.0) 1000 = 0.044 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 1 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory.

Bedroom 1: Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = (44 x 0.25 x 11.0) 1000 = 0.121 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 1 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory. Bedroom 2: Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = (44 x 0.25 x 15.0) 1000 = 0.165 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 1 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory. Master Bedroom: Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = (44 x 0.25 x 15.0) 1000 = 0.165 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 1 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory. Dining Room: Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = (44 x 0.25 x 2.0) 1000 = 0.022 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 1 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory.

Shower Shower specification For Master Bath: Shower rating (kW) = 8.4 Cable length (m) = 5.0m Fuse of MCB rating (amps) = 40 Amps = Watts Volts = 8400 240 = 35 From table, select 10 mm2 c.s.a. (52 amps) Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = ( 4.4 x 35 x 5.0 ) 1000 = 0.77 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 10 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory. For Bath: Shower rating (kW) = 8.4 Cable length (m) = 3.0m Fuse of MCB rating (amps) = 40 Amps = Watts Volts = 8400 240 = 35 From table, select 10 mm2 c.s.a. (52 amps) Voltage drop = (mV x Current flowing x Cable length) 1000 = ( 4.4 x 35 x 3.0 ) 1000 = 0.462 volts Maximum voltage drop = 240 x 4% = 9.6 volts. Therefore, 10 mm2 c.s.a. cable is satisfactory. Lighting Radial sockets Shower 14 15 1 1 4 10 13 30 52 44 11 4.4
