Conductor operating temperature: 85oc

 

1.        The voltage drop figures given above are based on a conductor operating temperature of 85oc and are therefore not accurate when the operating temperature is in excess of 85oc

 

2.        * A larger voltage drop will result if the cables are spaced

 

The above table is in accordance with Table 4H2B of the 16th Edition of IEE Wiring Regulations

 

For cables having conductors of 16mm or less cross-sectional area their inductance can be ignored and (mV/A/m)r values only tabulated. For cables having conductors greater than 16mm the impedence values are given as (mV/A/m)z, together with the resistive component (mV/A/m)r and the reactive component (mV/A/m)x.
