Electricians are losing repair and EV charger installation jobs because competitors unnecessarily quote expensive panel upgrades without performing proper load calculations.
No widely used software tool helps electricians quickly generate accurate load calculations and present them to homeowners to justify lower-cost alternatives, leading to lost bids and unnecessary upgrades.
Workarounds Described
- runs 'an actual load calc' manually
- uses load management device as cheaper alternative
Implied Software Gaps
- Automated load calculation software that integrates with quoting to replace manual calculation workaround
- Proposal generation tool that includes load management device as alternative to panel upgrade
LoadCalc Pro
LoadCalc Pro is a mobile-first app for electricians to perform fast, code-compliant load calculations for EV charger installations. It takes inputs on appliances, HVAC, and panel specs, automatically computes available capacity, and generates a professional report to share with homeowners. The app includes a built-in proposal tool for quoting load management devices as an alternative to costly panel upgrades.
- Quick input of household appliances (gas/electric) with dropdowns
- Auto-calculates NEC load based on panel size and existing loads
- Generates shareable PDF report with capacity summary and recommendation
- Built-in proposal quoting for load management devices vs panel upgrades
- Integration with popular electrical estimating software
