2. 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 ...

3. Wire stripper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_stripper

   When engaged, a compound automatic wire stripper first simultaneously grips the wire in one side and in the other side closes its shaped blades cutting the insulation around the conductor. After the sides have completed their strokes the two sides of the mechanism spread apart to push the cut tube of insulation from the end of the conductor.

4. Power rating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_rating

   The service factor is typically in the 1.15-1.4 range, with the figure being lower for higher-power motors. For every hour of operation at the service-factor-adjusted power rating, a motor loses two to three hours of life at nominal power, i.e. its service life is reduced to less than half for continued operation at this level.

5. Ampacity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampacity

   Depending on the type of insulating material, common maximum allowable temperatures at the surface of the conductor are 60, 75, and 90 °C, often with an ambient air temperature of 30 °C. In the United States , 105 °C is allowed with ambient of 40 °C, for larger power cables, especially those operating at more than 2 kV.

6. IEC 60309 - Wikipedia

   They are also referred to as "pin & sleeve" connectors in North America [1] or as "CeeForm" connectors in the entertainment industry. [2] The maximum voltage allowed by the standard is 1000 V DC or AC; the maximum current, 800 A; and the maximum frequency, 500 Hz. The ambient temperature range is −25 °C to 40 °C. [3]

7. Ring circuit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_circuit

   Sometimes 4 mm 2 cable is used if very long cable runs (to help reduce voltage drop) or derating factors such as very thick thermal insulation are involved. 1.5 mm 2 mineral-insulated copper-clad cable (known as pyro) may also be used (as mineral insulated cable can withstand heat more effectively than normal PVC) though more care must be taken ...
