Question 1 of 30👑 VIP

A journeyman electrician is sizing a conductor for a 240V, single-phase, 30-ampere branch circuit that supplies a residential electric dryer. The circuit runs 85 feet from the panelboard to the outlet. Using Table 310.12 of the NEC, the minimum conductor size is 10 AWG copper. However, the foreman is concerned about voltage drop exceeding 3% on this branch circuit. If the conductor resistance for 10 AWG copper is approximately 1.24 ohms per 1,000 feet (one-way), what is the approximate voltage drop across this circuit under full 30-ampere load?
