Cable sizing according IEC
The tables below indicate the current carrying capacities of cables for 3 commonly used installation methods,
calculated according to standard 60364-5-52 - electrical installations of buildings part 5 - selection and erection
equipment and section 52 - current carrying capacities in wiring systems.
The allowed currents are valid for PVC insulated cables with three loaded copper conductors (maximum
conductor temperature 70 °C).
Installation method B2 according table B.52.1.
Multi-core cable in conduit on a wooden wall
Maximum allowed current in function of the ambient temperature for installation method B2
