Ambient temperature: 30°C. Conductor operating temperature: 90°C.
Notes:
1 Where a conductor operates at a temperature exceeding 70°C it must be ascertained that the equipment connected to the conductor is suitable for the conductor operating temperature (see Regulation 512.1.2).
2 Where cables in this table are connected to equipment or accessories designed to operate at a temperature not exceeding 70°C, the current ratings given in the equivalent table for 70°C thermoplastic insulated cables (Table 4DIA ) must be used (see also Regulation 523.1).
3 The above table is in accordance with Table 4E1A of the 17th Edition of IEE Wiring Regulations.
