Main Conductor Impedance Calculation
Formula:

Z = ¿ (L/305)
Where
R – Resistance
X – Reactance
L – Length of Conductor

Service Drop Conductor: # 6 Twisted Aluminum Wire Free Air (80 A, @ 30°C Ambient
Air Temperature)
R = 0.81 ohms
X = 0.051 ohms
L = 50 m
ZSD = Service Drop Impedance

ZSD = ¿ (50/305)
= 0.01330498 ohms
Main Entrance Conductor: 2 - # 6 THHN Copper Wire in 1-1/4” Ø RSC Pipe

R = 0.49 ohms
X = 0.051 ohms
L=5m
ZF = Main Feeder Impedance

ZF = ¿ (5/305)
= 0.0080762 ohms
Total Main Feeder Impedance:
ZTF = 0.01330498+ 0.0080762 = 0.14112603 ohms
