VoltPlan Tools

Electrical calculators built for 12V systems

Use VoltPlan's free calculators to size wire, fuse protection, battery banks, inverters, and solar arrays for campers, boats, RVs, and off-grid builds.

Fuse Size & Wire Gauge Calculator

Calculate fuse size, wire gauge (AWG or mm²), voltage drop, and placement for 12V, 24V, and 48V DC systems.

Open Calculator

Battery Bank Sizer

Daily Wh, days of autonomy, and chemistry-aware DoD limits for LiFePO4, AGM, gel, and lead-acid banks at 12V, 24V, or 48V.

Open Calculator

Inverter Size Calculator

Continuous wattage, startup surge, and DC current for camper, boat, and off-grid AC loads. Pure-sine recommendation included.

Open Calculator

Solar Panel Calculator

Array wattage, panel count, and MPPT charge controller current sized for your daily Wh and sun region.

Open Calculator

Voltage Drop Calculator

Pick a wire gauge and length, see voltage drop in volts and percent. AWG and mm² with temperature derating for any 12V/24V/48V circuit.

Open Calculator

Watts to Amps Converter

Convert between watts and amps at any DC or AC voltage. Optional power factor for motor and inverter loads.

Open Calculator

Ah to Wh Converter

Convert battery capacity (Ah) to stored energy (Wh and kWh) at 12V, 24V, or 48V. Reference table for common battery sizes included.

Open Calculator

Battery Runtime Calculator

How long will your battery run a given load before hitting the chemistry-aware DoD limit. LiFePO4, AGM, Gel, lead-acid.

Open Calculator

Battery Charge Time Calculator
