Re3™ MCAP ® Cable Cost Calculator
Determine time and cost savings using the MCAP ® Cable Cost Calculator
The Value of Labor Cost Savings
Quickly and easily illustrate the value of labor cost savings when using MCAP ® cable in place of traditional MC cable products. Based on the total number of outlets, boxes and light fixtures, the calculator will provide an estimated time and cost savings.
Savings Estimate Based On:
- Eliminating tedious grounding conductor make-up (savings of 20-30%) on every outlet, fixture, switch, junction box, panel…
- Eliminating need for equipment bonding jumpers (ground pigtails) and ground screws in junction boxes
- With self-grounding devices, eliminating the need for equipment grounding jumpers (ground pigtails) and ground screws in wiring device boxes
- MCAP is approximately 20 pounds lighter than conventional MC.
- Easier to install wiring devices and finish trim plates
Savings Estimate Based On:
- Removal of a single overall Mylar tape covering versus the paper tape covering each individual conductor in HCF AC Cable
- Less securing and supporting required: 6 feet for HCF MCAP versus 4.5 feet for HCF AC
- Anti-short bushings not required by NEC or UL (consult local inspector prior to installation)
- 20 pounds lighter than HCF AC
- More than 4 current carrying conductors permitted (Multiple Neutral and Multi-Conductor (Homerun) Cables now possible)
Re3TM Voltage Drop Calculator
Helps determine the proper wire size for an electrical circuit based on the voltage drop and current carrying capacity of an electrical circuit.
Re3TM Conduit Fill Calculator
Conduit Fill is the percent of area inside the conduit taken up by the cable(s). Provides quick and easy results for the conduit fill percent, per NEC® guidelines.
SIMpull ® Cable Pull Calculator
Helps to estimate and manage cable installation projects. Provides the ability to alter data that indicates tension or sidewall pressure.
