    Current ratings for UL-CSA cables

    Current ratings
    PVC-insulated single and multicore wiring cables according to UL-AWM and CSA-TEW standards are used
    in switchboard and distribution cabinets of electrical equipments and as well as for the installation of
    machines and transformers in protecting tubes.
    PVC-insulation is allowed at maximum temperature range of 105°C.
    The indicated values stated in the following tables are considered as guiding values. In critical situation the
    rules and recommendations for the current ratings should be followed.
