To calculate the size of wire needed for single-phase circuits, use the formula: Wire Circular Mils = 2 x ρ x I x L / (%Allowable Voltage Drop). For three-phase circuits, use: Wire Circular Mils = √3 x 2 x ρ x I x L / (%Allowable Voltage Drop). Where ρ is the resistivity of the conductor material (copper or aluminum), I is the load current, L is the circuit length in feet, and %Allowable Voltage Drop is the acceptable voltage loss percentage.

Calculating Wire/Cable Size formula for single Phase Circuits
Wire Circular mils =2 x ρ x I x L / (%Allowable Voltage drop of source voltage)
Calculating Wire/Cable Size formula for Three Phase Circuits Wire Circular mils =√3 x 2 x ρ x I x L / (%Allowable Voltage drop of source voltage) Where; ρ = Specific resistance or resistivity of Conductor D = Distance in Feet (One way) i.e. ½ the total circuit length I = Load Current Note: the Value of ρ = Specific resistance or resistivity of Conductor is used here for copper and aluminum is 12.9 and 21.2 respectively at 75°C (167°F).
