Imperial Electrical Cables: Current

Ratings and Voltage Drop
These tables are provided to assist in the management of imperial electrical cables as many such
cables are still in good working order and will be around for many years to come.

The accuracy of the information contained within the tables cannot be guaranteed even though all
efforts have been made to ensure it. Users will therefore use the information at their own risk.

Notes:
1. This table does not apply to single-core sheathed cables enclosed in conduits, ducts or the like installed in free air.
2. The above ‘unenclosed’ current ratings may also be applied to any number of single insulated conductors run as open wiring in accordance with Rule 3.17, and to single-core
protected cables to AS C147 buried direct in the ground.
3. The above current ratings for underground ducts and pipes may be applied to single-core insulated cables installed in underground enclosures.
4. Voltage drop applies for single-core cable touching, flat pairs or trefoil at a minimum power factor of 0.8 and a conductor temperature of 75°C.
