I am trying to do a voltage drop calculation for a house comming up. "The owner built" the 200 amp feed-through service on the utility pole approximately 200 feet from the house site. [I do not know what all the owner plans to have (electric) at this time]. From the house, a garage and well house will also be feed. I figure to use probably 300 compact al. to feed this. I do not see the circular mils in Chapter 9 Table 8 for this wire. Any help would be appreciated.
 
cmils are the same for compact conductors as they are all other awg/cmil sized conductors ;)

300kcmil compact conductors have 300kcmil of cross-sectional area.

300kcmil = 300,000cmil

I don't know if I phrased it right, but what I am looking for is the "Area in cicular mills" of 300 kcmil so I may calculate the voltage drop using the
VD=2 x K x I x D/CM formula. Thanks
