Are you still losing hours trying to figure out why your commercial service entrance calculation keeps coming out wrong?

The Commercial Load Calculation Handbook is the only NEC-based, step-by-step reference that walks electrical contractors, engineers, and licensing exam candidates through every commercial load category in one complete system.

Built entirely on the 2023 National Electrical Code, it covers commercial load calculation, service entrance sizing, feeder design, and demand factor methods for every occupancy you will encounter on the job or on the exam.

Here is exactly what you get inside:

NEC Article 220 service entrance sizing: the complete 8-step worksheet, every demand factor cited
Lighting load calculation using NEC Table 220.12 unit loads and NEC Table 220.42 tiered demand factors
Commercial receptacle loads: 180 VA per outlet rule, NEC Table 220.44, dedicated equipment circuits
HVAC and motor loads: rooftop units (MCA method), chilled water plants, NEC 220.50 largest-motor rule
Commercial kitchen demand factors: NEC Table 220.56 cooking equipment calculation, step by step
EV charging load calculation under NEC 220.57: the 2023 NEC demand factor most engineers miss
Data center and server room sizing using Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE)
Emergency and standby power: NEC Articles 700, 701, 702 with generator sizing
56 fully solved worked examples, 98 practice problems, all answers included
Complete mixed-use building case study: floor plan to final service size

If you size commercial electrical services, prepare for the Master Electrician exam, or review electrical design submittals, this handbook gives you the exact process to get it right every time.
