Frequently Answers and Questions

How do I install the NEC update chip?
1) Purchase the NEC Update from CI 2) Once you receive the NEC Update chip, you need to install it in your ElectriCalc Pro: a) Turn calculator off. b) Remove the battery. c) Using a screwdriver, pop out the square tab located in the middle section on the back of your calculator. d) Replace it with the new Update tab by inserting it into the slot. e) Replace the battery door. f) Turn calculator on. Your calculator is now updated and ready to use.
How do I set the ambient temperature?
Press [Set] [2] and then enter the desired temperature using the number keys. The units can be displayed in Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F) by using the preference function ([Set][÷]).
How do I calculate the voltage drop?
Enter the phase, volts, amps, wire material, voltage drop wire size and length of run. The calculator determines resistance and then the voltage reduction. Voltage drop can be displayed as volts dropped, or as a percent reduction of potential load.
