    Calculating Voltage of 120V Load 750ft from Source

    so drawing it out it makes sense that there are 2 wires and the resistance for the wires 1.86 but with the load if the current is different how would I calculate the resostance for the load to treat it as a simple resistor?

    Calculating Voltage of 120V Load 750ft from Source

    i can get .00124 ohms per foot and get .93 ohms per 750 feet. if E=I*R and multiply the current of 41.7 amps and multiply that by the resistance of .93 ohms per 750 feet than I get a voltage drop of 38.8 Volts. That value doesn't seem right to me, but is that the correct way? I believe 1 wire...
