BS 7671:2018+A4:2026

Compliant on paper. Buildable on site.

CurrentProof is the BS 7671 design platform built around a question the others do not ask: can this actually be installed? Whole network design checking today, with the constructability family shipping check by check.

Public beta: every calculator, Circuit and Infrastructure included, is free until 28 February 2027. No card needed. Create an account

A 230 V supply, a sub-main to DB1 and two final circuits, drawn and specified in the calculator. The 50 m socket circuit fails its 5% volt drop limit at 8.0%. At 6 mm² it passes at 3.5%, and the report is ready. Data entry is shown at 4× speed.
The difference

Compliance is the price of entry. Constructability is the reason to buy.

Every tool in this market checks a design against BS 7671. None of them checks whether the thing you have drawn can be installed in the building it is going into. That gap is where the phone calls come from, and it is the gap CurrentProof is built to close.

  • Terminal capacity advisory, on the Circuit calculator. Select an MCB with a cable above 35 mm² and it warns you the cable may not fit the breaker terminal. It works from a typical device rating rather than the specific device, and the product labels it as an advisory.

  • Cable type against the premises. Standard cable where low smoke zero halogen is required.
  • Bending radius and containment capacity. The bend that cannot be achieved in the space it was drawn into.
  • Switchboard access. The board that cannot get into the room.

What you get, before you sign up

The three free calculators work without an account. These are the screens you'll use, with real numbers from the engine.

Volt Drop result of 5.263 V, 2.29%, compliant, with the Eq 12 working, the Appendix 4 Equation 6 temperature correction and the BS 7671 table references.

The working, not just the answer

Every input, factor and equation, with the table each value came from.

Volt Drop result of 13.159 V, 5.72%, marked non-compliant against an 11.50 V maximum.

A fail is shown as a fail

Run the cable past the Table 4Ab limit and the result turns red, with the limit beside it.

Load schedule with diversified totals of 226.78 A, 175.10 A and 175.10 A per phase, 17.9% phase imbalance, and two distribution boards.

Every board on one schedule

Connected and diversified load per phase, with the phase imbalance worked out for you.

Every value, traced to its table.

A spreadsheet won't tell you when a lookup came from the wrong table. CurrentProof cites every one, and if a check can't be evaluated, the result says so. It never reports a pass in its place. Got a result from another tool you can't verify? Run it here and see every factor.

01

Define your circuit and cable

Choose installation method, conductor material, and cable reference from the A4:2026 tables, with buried cables split into Methods D1 and D2.
