Volts comprises an integrated collection of electrical analysis modules and calculators into one unique, easy to use tool. You'll go beyond simple number crunching with the power to effectively deal with electrical devices, conductors, circuit breakers, transformers, generators, motors, electrical panels, conduit, junction boxes, cable trays and more, with the assurance of knowing the computations are as specified and required by the 2005 NFPA National Electrical Code® and IEEE. Information derived form Volts' accurate resulting conclusions can not only be printed with preset reports, schedules, drawings, diagrams and customizable report printers, but also exported in a csv file format where it can be utilized by any other database or spreadsheet Windows® application as well as saved to disk in Volts' proprietary .elc file format.

• Accurate – Volts utilizes the necessary NEC® tables, specifications, and requirements to assure accurate results along with voltage drop computations to IEEE Std 141 Exact Formula specifications. In addition, displayed voltage drop and actual real power values are constantly and automatically updated with every addition or modification to the circuit's devices or electrical panels along with all ancillary modules, reports, drawings and schedules. From a simple single circuit to multiple circuits feeding a multitude of inductive and resistive devices, Volts can handle the task.

• Informative – All NEC® tables, specifications, and requirements utilized by Volts are displayed in the appropriate screen. View any of 40 user defined column headers to keep you informed about every aspect of the circuit. Change column headers "on the fly" with a simple click of a button to paginate between information headers. Print panel schedules and drawings, conduits and cables schedules, one line riser diagrams, summary reports or one of five user configurable reports. Save the results to disk or export to a csv file format for use by Excel® or Access® or any other spreadsheet or database program. Utilize conductor gauges in AWG, mm² or kcmils units. With over 200 user defined formats for Volts' modules and report writers, Volts is there to inform you the way you need to be informed.

• Known Values – Volts allows you to work with what you know. Horsepower, volts, amperes, pherdestärke (ps)(cv), kilowatts, or anything else you can think of, Volts is ready to work for you. In addition, Volts is not limited to one method of calculation. With 5 different ways to calculate power factor, 10 for device efficiency, and almost unlimited approaches to Ohm's Law. Volts gives you the power of choice!

• Complete and Expanding – From complex unit conversions to motor overload protection, panel layout drawings to one line riser diagrams, transformer and generator sizing to motor LRA calculations, Volts' modules cover a vast array of electrical computations, each one to precise NEC® specifications. In addition, Volts is continually expanding with new module additions and program enhancements. There's simply nothing missing, or soon will be!

• Integrated Help – Volts is designed for ease of use. Learning to use it is simple, but, should the occasion arise, Volts has a fully integrated help file so you can get answers fast. Specific examples, manual calculations, NEC® table applications, regulations or specifications, or even questions about Volts itself, all there at the click of your mouse.

• Sensitive – Volts' analysis modules are sensitive to all aspects of a calculation. For example: Voltage drop is sensitive to device amperage, conductor material and insulation, conduit material, length of run, number of conductors in the raceway, and temperature from absolute zero to the insulations maximum tolerance rating, etc. With Volts, these things are automatically taken into account. You save time and money with answers that are right, the first time.

• NEC® Tables, Usage Explanations and Examples – Not only does Volts utilize the correct NEC® table, specifications, and regulations for its calculations, it also explains how and why these tables are used, complete with step by step examples and formulae.
