being as this is a NEC forum what good would it do us to have spreadsheets that do calculations on using cables we can't use?
Not realy, there is one part of the world following the NEC rules in design while installing and supplying the products of IEC....:lol: Fact.

Are you asking if it is okay to upload this spreadsheet? I have no objection as long as you are okay with it.

how do they make that work being as IEC and NEC rules are almost completely incompatible?
This is common now, you can find the US manufacturers manufacturing the IEC equipments & the IEC manufacturers manufacturing the UL & ANSI equipments, this is part of the Globalization.

I have open office and I can't open it. There are approximately 13 file extensions, within OF for saving Excel files which has .xls and .xlt as the main extensions.

Here is a saved down version. I have no idea if the functionality remained through the translation. (Again, remove the .doc extension.)

Try this:
Again you do need only to replace "DOC" by "xlsx".

To see the file extension, do these steps:
1- Go to control panel.
2- Open folder options.
3- Open view tab.
4- Remove the selection of "Hide extensions..."
Now, you can see the extension, replace "DOC" by "xlsx".

It's not working with me, better to use the one from my posts, i downloaded after uploading just to check, it is working without any issue.
I also am using Open Office, I tried changing the extension to .ods, .xls, and .xLsx none worked.
So I thought I would change the whole name to something simple so I change the whole name to
a and added .xLsx for the name extension as shown by Sleem and it worked fine.
I did use a free program Named Rename to do this.
