CableCalc BS7671 is a cable calculation software from Castline Systems designed for electrical engineers and contractors. It combines cable size calculations for single and three-phase systems, distribution board schedule creation, and detailed schematic diagram generation so users can ensure compliance with the latest standards. The software supports the 18th Edition of the IET Wiring Regulations, making it a reliable tool for modern electrical installations. Users benefit from features such as CABLECALC, FORMFILL, and LICENSES, which facilitate supply details, circuit types, load assessments, and more. Key capabilities: Cable Selection Supply Details Formfill Load Calculation Schematic Generation Best for: electrical professionals that need accurate cable sizing and compliance documentation.
CableCalc BS7671 is a focused cable-sizing and distribution-board design tool built to help electricians, contractors and consulting engineers perform BS 7671-compliant calculations quickly and produce professional documentation. The product comes in tiered editions (Level 1–4) that scale from simple on-site calculators to a full-featured designer capable of unlimited distribution boards, detailed single-line schematics, manufacturer protective-device libraries and aluminium cable support. It’s explicitly aimed at UK wiring-regulation workflows — voltage drop, Zs/disconnection time, fault current and earth fault checks are all core outputs — and is widely listed on software directories used by electrical professionals. The user interface is practical and workflow-driven rather than flashy: entry forms guide you through radial, ring and three-phase calculations, while higher levels expose drag-and-drop distribution-board building and schedule generation. For field use there’s also an iPad app variant that mirrors the core calculators and produces PDF printouts, making on-site sign-off and client reports straightforward. Reviewers on product directories praise the clear stepwise inputs and the ability to save project defaults to speed repeated tasks — a helpful touch when moving between similar jobs.
The software is fully compliant with the latest BS7671:2018+A2:2022 IET Wiring Regulations.
Users can personalize calculation printouts with a company logo for a professional touch.
