18 fixtures with .5 amp ballast at 120 volt, 300 feet total run, #12 wire . What will voltage be at end of run? Would this installtion be ok?
Voltage drop calculator.

You have to calculate one section at a time. This is a problem if you're using Mike Holt's calculator because it doesn't calculate voltage drop, it calculates what size wire, what length, or what current you need to get a specific % voltage drop.I have trouble calculating voltage drop when all load is not at the end.
