Lava Load

Lava Load is an offline-first split-phase residential load-planning studio for homeowners planning remodels, electrical apprentices, trade-school cohorts, and small general-contractor helpers.

Build a named service panel on a live workbench, place 120 V and 240 V circuits on the left or right bus leg (or across both), enter nameplate or computed VA, and watch dual-leg amp and VA meters update instantly. Apply continuous-load factors with one tap, read leg imbalance and spare capacity at a glance, and catch dangerous imbalance before you buy breakers—all on-device, with no account required.

CORE WORKBENCH
• Live split-phase panel with left/right bus legs and 240 V double-pole placement
• Dual-leg amp and VA meters that refresh as every circuit is assigned
• Continuous vs noncontinuous toggles with clear 125% adjusted-load readout
• Multi-wire branch helper with shared-neutral caution chips when two 120 V circuits share a yoke

SEED CATALOG & GUIDANCE
• Ready circuit presets: general lighting VA/ft², small-appliance and laundry branches, kitchen counters, water heater, range, dryer, HVAC condenser, bathroom, garage/workshop, and an educational EVSE preset
• Room-type AFCI/GFCI reference with filter chips for kitchen, bath, laundry, garage, outdoors, and bedrooms
• Educational service-size suggestion band from total calculated load, shown as a literacy aid with an on-screen disclaimer—not certified design and not a permit filing tool

PLANS, EXPORT & LEARNING
• Named panel plans stored locally: create, duplicate, archive, and reopen with full circuit lists intact
• Plain-text load summary export through the Android share sheet for email or crew chat
• Illustrated glossary of bus, leg, VA, demand vs connected load, double-pole, and spare-slot terms
• First-run onboarding installs a sample “Starter Ranch 200 A” plan so you can explore immediately

LoadSplit Panel is operational electrical math with saved plans and reference libraries. It is not a permit filer, not a work-order system, and not a geometry sandbox. Plan carefully, share a clear load summary, and leave the job with better leg balance awareness.
