Housecall Pro, one of the leading field service management platforms, has just rolled out its newest innovation — the Electrical Toolkit App, a free and dedicated tool built specifically for electricians and electrical contractors.
Housecall Pro officially announced the launch on PR Newswire, describing the app as a comprehensive, jobsite-ready solution that brings together every essential electrical calculation in one place.
A One-Stop Digital Toolbox for Electricians
Instead of juggling multiple apps, spreadsheets, or codebooks, the Electrical Toolkit simplifies day-to-day work with a clean, intuitive interface and a library of built-in calculators.
It’s designed to save time, reduce calculation errors, and help field techs make informed decisions — even without Wi-Fi.
Key Features at a Glance:
Voltage Drop & Wire Size Calculators – Quickly determine voltage loss and the proper conductor size for every circuit.
Conduit Bending Tools – Includes step-by-step guidance for offsets, saddles, and rolling offsets.
Conduit Fill Calculator – Ensures NEC-compliant conductor fill within conduits.
Residential Load Calculations – Supports optional method load calcs for homes with sharable PDF output.
Ohm’s Law & Conversion Tools – For fast conversions between amps, volts, and watts.
Offline Access – Works without cell service or internet connection.
Dark Mode – Reduces glare and eye strain during long jobsite hours.
You can download the app directly from Housecall Pro’s official Electrical Toolkit page.
Built for the Jobsite
What sets this toolkit apart is how they integrate into real-world workflows. Electricians can perform quick calculations, verify conduit fill, or run a load calculation while standing next to a panel or pulling wire.
For contractors using the broader Housecall Pro system — which already handles scheduling, dispatching, invoicing, and estimating — the Electrical Toolkit acts as a perfect companion. It gives technicians a technical edge in the field while managers handle operations back in the office.
Why This Matters for the Skilled Trades
This launch signals a bigger trend in the trades: software companies are no longer just building “management tools” — they’re building trade-specific ecosystems.
For electricians, this means:
More time on tools, less time on tablets.
Greater accuracy for code compliance and material planning.
Faster quotes and reduced callbacks.
It also gives apprentices and new technicians an accessible way to double-check their work in real time, strengthening field education and reducing costly mistakes.
