6. Current-carrying capacities
6.1 Nominal current-carrying capacities
Table 1 show the current-carrying capacities and electric parameters detailed for every
cable.
Current-carrying capacities, in ampers, are calculated according to UNE 211435 and for the
following conditions:
- Open air installation: three single-core cables in trefoil formation and ambient
temperature of 40 C; protected from direct sun radiation and with adequate ventilation
(supported by cleats and hangers or on perforated tray).
- Buried installation: three single-core cables in trefoil formation direct buried at a depth of
1 m, ground temperature of 25 C and soil thermal resistivity of 1,5 Km/W.
- In all cases it is supossed a three-phase circuit.
Reactance (X) is calculated at 50 Hz and for three single-core cables (in triangle or trefoil
formation).
For conditions other than this apply the adequate correction factors (point 6.3).
