Losses from Bussing 0 Watts Instructions:

Losses from Breakers 0 Watts This spreadsheet will give you a quick estimate of panelboard heat loss.
Losses from Fusible Devices 0 Watts Simply enter your panelboards based on the total number of poles at each amperage.
Total Heat Loss 0 Watts
Then enter the total number of breaker poles and fuse poles you have.

For example, a 600 panel with 42 ckts. containing 28 breakers that are 20 amp/1 pole and
4 breakers at 100 amp/3 pole (12 total poles) and 2 spaces (0 poles) would net 608.8 watts.
