Configuration Calculator

Configuration Calculator helps you determine the number of luminaires each circuit in your installation can support, based on type of luminaire, power source (Data Enablers for color and iW luminaires, line power for eW luminaires), line voltage, circuit load, and cable lengths. Configuration Calculator also calculates your configuration's total power consumption in both watts and amps.

Configuration Calculator represents the configuration you specify (luminaires and optional jumper cables, if applicable) in a simple schematic diagram. As you add and delete luminaires, change cable lengths and line voltage, or modify the maximum circuit load, Configuration Calculator automatically recalculates your configuration's total power consumption. With a single mouse-click, you can quickly determine the maximum number of luminaires your configuration can support, based on the details you entered. If you exceed the configuration's power limitations, Configuration Calculator displays a warning in red.
