Branch circuits are the conductors located between the last over current device and the utilization equipment. Branch circuits may be located in the service equipment or in a panel supplied by a feeder. When we look at voltage drop, remember the total of 5% allowed is between the Feeder and branch circuit. If we compensate or size the wire for 3% volt drop on the feeder, then we must compensate for only 2% on the branch circuit, the total being 5%. If we compensate or size the wire
