INSTALATION CONDITIONS FOR CURRENT CARRYING CAPACITIES
Current carrying capacities based on table N°4.4 according to RIC N°4, They are applied for installations where ducts and cables are not directly exposed to solar radiation.
(3) direct current buried at 20°C: Sheathed, single conductor or multi conductor cables (Three conductors with load) installed directly buried. Installation Method D2 according to RIC N°4.
(4) current in buried duct at 20°C: Single conductor or multi conductor cables (three conductors with load) installed in buried ducts. Installation Method D1 according to RIC N°4.
(5) duct current at 30°C: Up to three single conductors or multi conductor cables (three conductors with load) installed in ducts or trays attached to walls. Installation Method B1 and B2 according to RIC N°4.
(6) air current at 30°C: Multiconductor cables (Three conductors with load) installed freely in the air, in conductor ladders or in conductor baskets or in perforated trays. Installation Method E according to RIC N°4. Single conductor cables: Three conductors with load, in contact and in a flat arrangement, installed freely in the air, on conductor ladders or in conductor baskets or in perforated trays. Installation Method F according to RIC N°4.
For buried installations, a depth of 0,7 meters and a thermal resistivity of the soil of 1 K*m/W.
Current capacity correction factors must be considered according to the specific installation conditions.
