  2. Aluminium-conductor steel-reinforced cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium-conductor_steel...

    An ACSR conductor can in part be denoted by its stranding, for example, an ACSR conductor with 72 aluminium strands with a core of 7 steel strands will be called 72/7 ACSR conductor. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Cables generally range from #6 AWG ("6/1" – six outer aluminum conductors and one steel reinforcing conductor) to 2167 kcmil ("72/7 ...

    They are based on "steady-state (equilibrium) ampacity" calculations. Emergency ratings are based on transient equations and models: they provide permissible overload ratings for a short and adjustable time (typically 5 to 30 minutes). Forecasting methods have been developed to determine intraday and day-ahead ampacity forecasts.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampacity

    For example, the United States National Electrical Code, Table 310.15(B)(16), specifies that up to three 8 AWG copper wires having a common insulating material (THWN) in a raceway, cable, or direct burial has an ampacity of 50 A when the ambient air is 30 °C, the conductor surface temperature allowed to be 75 °C. A single insulated conductor ...

    12/2 Non-metallic (NM) sheathed cable. Most circuits in the modern North American home and light commercial construction are wired with non-metallic sheathed (NM) cable designated type. [9] This type of cable is the least expensive for a given size and is appropriate for dry indoor applications.

  6. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    The table below shows various data including both the resistance of the various wire gauges and the allowable current based on a copper conductor with plastic insulation. The diameter information in the table applies to solid wires. Stranded wires are calculated by calculating the equivalent cross sectional copper area. Fusing current (melting ...

  7. IEC 60228 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60228

    Comparison of SWG (red), AWG (blue) and IEC 60228 (black) wire gauge sizes from 0.03 to 200 mm² to scale on a 1 mm grid – in the SVG file, hover over a size to highlight it. In engineering applications, it is often most convenient to describe a wire in terms of its cross-section area, rather than its diameter, because the cross section is directly proportional to its strength and weight ...
