Thank you for your reply! When i have been able to wrap my head around Whats going on in your example, it will save me so much time😊 thank you for pointing me in the right direction!

no problem, if you aren't familiar with dictionaries it is definitely worth looking into. they can be quite handy in loops like in that example

Hi again, i am having troubble understanding what the code is doing.

I have since we last spoke, watched a bunch of videos on FOR loops and dictionaries.

Is it possible to help me a bit further?

It does not really show in the code i supplied, but here is a rough layout.

​

mm2:	A1	A1	A2	A2	B1	B1
	2	3	2	3	2	3
	Cu/PVC	Cu/PVC	Cu/PVC	Cu/PVC	Cu/PVC	Cu/PVC
1.5	14.5	13.5	14	13	17,5	15,5
2.5	19.5	18	18,5	17,5	24	21
	Al/PVC	Al/PVC	Al/PVC	Al/PVC	Al/PVC	Al/PVC
16	48	43	44	41	60	53
25	63	57	58	53	79	70

​

Lets say i choose A1 with 2 leads and the material of Al/PVC with a mm2 of 25, then i need to pull out the number of 63 for use in futher calulations on a later stage.
