What is Voltage Drop Calculation for Copper Wire about?

This document provides instructions on how to calculate voltage drop in a copper wire using the formula: Volts= Length x Current x 0.017 / Area. It explains the terms in the formula and provides an example calculation for a trailer wire where there would be a 4.25V drop over 50m of 4mm2 wire carrying a 20A current. It notes that voltage drop increases with higher wire temperatures.
