Field notes
Users choose conduit type and trade size, then add THHN/THWN/THWN-2 conductors by gauge and count; the page returns total area, applicable fill limit, fill percentage, and smallest fitting size. It lays out the Table 1 percentages and Table 4/5 values alongside worked examples. The site says it re-entered the tables and checked 300 random combinations across EMT, PVC Schedule 40, and rigid metal conduit; its stated source cross-check is the 2017 NEC edition.
