About allowable current
The allowable current value is the calculated value when the ambient temperature is 30°C and a single cable is laid in the air. It is not a guaranteed value.
If the ambient temperature is 30℃ or higher, multiply the allowable current value by the current reduction factor in the table below.
The allowable current value is a value calculated according to JCS0168 and is not a guaranteed value.
JCS0168: The Japanese Electric Wire & Cable Makers' Association standard "Calculation of allowable current for power cable of 33 kV or less"
Current Reduction Factor
| Ambient temperature (℃) | 30 | 35 | 40 | 45 | 50 | 55 | 60 | 65 | 70 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Current Reduction Factor | 1.00 | 0.94 | 0.88 | 0.82 | 0.75 | 0.67 | 0.58 | 0.47 | 0.33 |
Wire Core Identification
