Secondary & URD conductor catalog, sourced
Included with the complete platform

Staking engineers shouldn't have to choose between a $10,000 seat of IOU-grade software and a calculator built by someone who has never framed a pole. CoopEngineer covers the daily math of distribution line design with options for transformer sizing, guy and anchor loading, pole strength screening, flicker, sag and clearance, and voltage drop. All with NESC loading districts and Table 253-1 load factors built in.

Every calculator shows its work. The inputs, the method and the intermediate numbers are on the screen, so results can be checked, defended and learned from. This provides planning-level estimates that respect the engineering judgment they support. Guy loads build from the actual conductors on the pole by moment balance, assemblies and anchors resolve to a governing capacity by soil class, and every conductor value in the catalog names its source.
