Scope
This Standards Publication covers the ampacity ratings for 600-15,000 volt solid dielectric cables installed
in cable trays. Ampacity ratings are tabulated for single conductor cables, triplexed assemblies of single
conductor cables, and three-conductor cables incorporating an overall jacket.
Ampacities have been tabulated for the cable constructions and the operating conditions normally
encountered for tray applications. Correction factors to adjust the tabulated values to better reflect
specific conditions are provided. These include adjustments to account for ambient and operating
temperatures, cable construction, tray covers, and diversification of the cable loading.
This standard is intended primarily for use by the utility industry. It is not intended for use where
compliance with the National Electrical Code or other regulations is mandatory.

History
Ampacity tables for cables in trays were published in the Insulated Power Cable Engineers Association
Publication No. P-33-440, April 2, 1959 (IPCEA is currently known as ICEA). It assumed a load diversity
but did not specifically define the diversity. The demands of modern generating plants required a more
precise definition of operating conditions for the determination of cable ampacities.
Experimental work with various cables and the loading of trays by J. Stolpe1 and the theory developed by
Stolpe, Underwriters Laboratories Inc., Lee,2 and ICEA Publication P-46-426, IEEE S-135 Power Cable
Ampacities, 1962 Edition provided a more accurate means of calculating ampacities of cables in trays. A
joint committee of IPCEA and IEEE Insulated Conductors Committee utilized this work in preparing the
ampacity tables. They were published in the IPCEA/NEMA Standards Publication for Ampacities of
Cables in Open-top Cable Trays, IPCEA Publication No. P-54-440, NEMA Standards Publication No. WC
51-1972. They superseded the factors in Table B for cables without maintained spacing in the IPCEA
Factors for Calculating Ampacities of Cables Installed in Ladder Supports, Trays and Troughs, P-33440, April 2, 1959. Table A of that publication covering factors for cables with maintained spacing was
not affected.
The 1975 edition of the IPCEA/NEMA Standards Publication was expanded to cover 15 kV cables and
includes a great many editorial corrections that clarify the 1972 document. The document was revised in
April 1976 and again in August 1979. NEMA reaffirmed the document on November 20, 1980. In
October 1984, a correction was made in the earlier Appendix D and was included in that edition.
The members of IEEE-IPCEA Joint Committee at the time of the initial writing were: R. C. Waldron,
Chairman, D. A. Costello, E. Finch, E. L. Kolmorgen, M. J. Koulopoulos, R. H. Lee, R. A. Peterson, D. A.
Silver, and J. Stolpe
The extended information contained in this revision was made possible through recent theoretical and
experimental work by W. Z. Black and B. L. Harshe3,4. This edition has been expanded to include tray fill
depths up to 4 inches and adjustment factors to account for tray covers and load diversity. In addition, the
tables have been revised to reflect current cable design practices and conductor sizes through 2000 kcmil
inclusive.

GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1

BACKGROUND

Establishing the ampacity of cables installed in cable trays can become quite complex since a cable tray
may contain hundreds of cables differing in size and loading. Methods to compute cable ratings under
these operating conditions were developed first by J. Stolpe. This conservative technique assumes the
cables are packed into the tray and are operating at maximum loading such that the heat generated can
be assumed to be uniformly distributed throughout the total cable mass. This has been and continues to
be the basis for the ampacity tables provided in this standard.
More recently, B. L. Harshe and W. Z. Black have developed models that account for load diversity and
the presence of tray covers in the determination of allowable cable ampacity. The validation of their
models also included tests using cable fill depths up to 4 inches. In recognition of this work, the tables
have been expanded to include fill depths of 3.5 inches and 4 inches and adjustment factors have been
added for diversity loading and the use of tray covers.
Sample ampacity calculations are provided to demonstrate the use of the tables and adjustment factors.

DEFINITIONS

allowable heat generation: The maximum allowable heat generation (watts/inch2/ft) for the cable mass
per unit length of tray. Exceeding this value will cause the cables in the tray to exceed their operating
temperature limits.
apparent fill depth: The calculated depth of cable in the tray. This value is used to determine the
allowable heat generation for given tray fill conditions. The value is calculated by dividing the total area
occupied by the cables in the tray by the width of the tray.
CAUTION: To account for the fact that cables will not pack into a solid mass, each cable in the tray is
assumed to occupy a space defined by a square whose sides equal the cable diameter.
cover factor: The ampacity of a cable installed in a covered tray divided by the ampacity of the same
cable in the same tray without a cover.
diversification factor: The ampacity of a cable installed in a tray containing unequally loaded cables
divided by the ampacity of the same cable and tray where all cables are fully loaded.
% tray fill: The combined circular cross sectional area of the cables installed in the tray divided by the
total available cross sectional area of the tray (width X height) expressed as a percentage.

CAUTION: To determine the apparent fill depth (basis for calculations and tables) when given the % Tray
Fill, the following equation must be used to account for the different methods used to determine the cross
sectional area occupied by the cables. (Refer to Section 4.1 for an example)
Apparent Fill Depth = (4/) * % Tray Fill * Tray Depth

Section 2
TABLE DEVELOPMENT PARAMETERS
2.1

PARAMETERS USED TO DEVELOP TRAY AMPACITY TABLES

The tabulated ampacities are based on the fundamental assumption that all cables are fully loaded and
operating at 100% load factor. The cables are tightly packed in a 24-inch wide uncovered tray. Variable
parameters and assumptions applied in the determination and tabulation of the tray ampacities are listed
and discussed below.
2.1.1

Cable Operating Temperatures

The ampacities tabulated are based on a normal conductor operating temperature of 90C (194F) and an
air ambient temperature of 40C (104F).
When trays are stacked, the ambient air temperature of the upper trays will be higher depending on the
amount of ventilation and the distance between the trays. The same is true in cable tunnels without
forced ventilation. In these and similar situations the use of a higher ambient temperature shall be
considered. A 50C (122F) ambient will frequently exist at the top of the tunnel.
Where trays contain cables having different maximum operating temperatures, ampacities for the entire
group shall be limited to the lowest temperature rating
Correction factors for other operating and ambient conditions are provided for in Section 3.
2.1.2

Allowable Heat Generation

The maximum heat generation is determined by the method developed by Stolpe. The values calculated
for the tabulated Apparent Fill Depths are shown below in Table 2-1. The parameters employed in this
calculation are shown in Table 2-2.

Calculated Depth, inches =

where:
d1 , d2 , ...dn = diameter of cables, inches.
n1 , n2 , ...nn = number of cables of diameters d1 , d2 ,...dn , respectively.
w = width of tray, inches.

2.1.4

Cable Diameters

The cable diameters were calculated using the nominal conductor diameters and wall thickness provided
in the referenced ICEA cable standards. For cable diameters different than those shown in the tables, see
paragraph 3.1.
2.1.5

Conductor Resistance

Conductor resistance values were obtained from the referenced ICEA standards and corrected for
operating temperature and skin effect. The individual strands of copper conductors are coated. For
triplexed assemblies and three conductor cables the resistance was further adjusted to account for 2%
increase in length due to cabling. Proximity effects have been included and are based on a triangular
configuration. Single conductors are assumed to lie in close triangular arrangements.
2.1.6

Calculated Free-Air Ampacity

The ampacity of cables in free-air is provided for reference. Values are based on computation methods
described in IEEE Std 835 1994. Tabulated values in this standard are limited to 80% of the free-air
ampacity based on natural convection and no solar heat absorption. The calculated conductor resistance
at 90C including skin and proximity effects and cable diameters used in the ampacity calculation are as
shown in the tables. Thermal resistivity values for the internal cable components are 350C-cm/watt and
500C-cm/watt for the insulation and jacket, respectively.

Section 3
AMPACITY ADJUSTMENT FACTORS
3.1

CORRECTION FACTOR FOR DIAMETERS OF CABLES

Diameters for cables meeting the construction requirements of the referenced ICEA standards are given
in each table. For cable diameters different than the tabulated values, the ampacity can be calculated by
direct proportion to the cable diameters as follows:

d
I = x Io
x d
o
where:
Io = ampacity for cable diameter d0 from the table.
do = cable diameter from the table.
Ix = ampacity for cable diameter dx
dx= cable diameter less than the calculated depth of those in tables.
3.2

CORRECTION FACTOR FOR TEMPERATURES

The tables are based on a conductor temperature of 90C and an ambient air temperature of 40C.
3.2.1

Ambient Temperature

If the trays are stacked, the ambient air temperature of the upper trays will be higher depending on the
amount of ventilation around the trays. In cable tunnels without forced ventilation, a 50C ambient will
frequently exist at the top of the tunnel. The following factors should be used for correcting for different
ambient air temperatures.

Where trays contain cables having different maximum operating temperatures, ampacities for the entire
group shall be limited to the lowest temperature rating.
Where both the ambient temperature and conductor temperature differ from those stated in 2.1.1, the
product of both correction factors should be used.
3.3

CORRECTION FACTOR FOR NUMBER OF CONDUCTORS

The tables apply to single conductor, triplexed and three-conductor cables. For other numbers of
conductors, the current will vary as the square root of the conductors carrying current and the ampacity
can be calculated as follows:

d 'x 3
I ' x = I ' 0 '
d 0 nx
where:

I ' 0 = ampacity for three-conductor cable from the table.


I ' x = ampacity for cable having n x conductors.
d ' x = diameter of cable having n x conductors.
d ' 0 = diameter of three-conductor cable from the table.
n x = number of conductors other than given in the table.

CORRECTION FACTORS FOR TRAY COVERS

The following table provides ampacity correction factors for trays employing covers. The adjustment
factors represent worst case conditions where the air gaps between the cable mass and cover are greater
than inch. For an air gap spacing less than inch the thermal resistance of the air gap decreases
dramatically resulting in an increase in the multiplier.

CORRECTION FACTORS FOR LOAD DIVERSITY

The thermal model used to compute tray ampacities of diversely loaded cables is based on the work of
B.L. Harshe and W.Z. Black. Their pancake layer model assumes heavily loaded cables are located at
the center (horizontal layer across the tray width) of the cable mass while lightly loaded cables are
nearest the surface. This approach will lead to the maximum possible cable mass temperature and
therefore a conservative ampacity but only when it can be safely assumed that the heat is generated
uniformly across the tray width. Cable ampacity is calculated by multiplying the value tabulated by the
ampacity correction factor provided in Table 3-4.
CAUTION: In situations where heavily loaded cables are installed in a tray and the area occupied by
these loaded cables cannot be safely assumed to extend across the tray width (i.e., loaded cables are
bunched together) the correction factors given in Table 3-4 should not be utilized. These situations are
beyond the scope of this standard. Methods are available to address these special cases. The user
should refer to Section 1.2.2 for references that provide guidance.
3.5.1

Determining the Loading Factor

Cables operating at less than 25% of the tabulated ampacity shall be considered lightly loaded and will
therefore have negligible effect on the temperature rise. Cables carrying load currents greater than 25%
of the tabulated values shall be considered fully loaded.
Load diversification is calculated by dividing the area occupied by the heavily loaded cables by the total
area occupied by all cables in the tray.

The tray is currently estimated at 20% fill, but it is planned to double the plant capacity by adding two
additional units and use the existing tray to route the new circuits to their intended locations. Can the tray
be utilized without exceeding the 90C rating of the cable products it contains? Ambient air temperature is
near 40C during summer months.

SELECTING AMPACITY VALUES AND USING ADJUSTMENT FACTORS

Using the identified tables the ampacity for each cable is obtained by reading down the column containing
the calculated apparent fill depth until it intercepts the row containing the appropriate conductor size.
Since the tables are for trays without covers, the ampacity needs to be adjusted accordingly. The effect of
the cover is obtained from Table 3-3 in this case an adjustment multiplier of 0.81 (2 inch depth of fill) is to
be used.
The 80% In-Free Air ampacity is also available in the table for reference and it is recommended that the tray
cable ampacity be limited to the smaller of these values. As such, for this example we obtain the following:

Note that the 5kV cable ampacity after correcting for the presence of a tray cover is exceeded. One
solution to the problem would be to remove the cover but we also know that the analysis assumes all the
cables to be fully loaded and we know in this example that this is not the case.

CALCULATING AND APPLYING DIVERSITY FACTORS

A quick analysis of the diversity is in order and the results shown below provide confidence that the

The calculated diversity factor of 1.1 will yield an ampacity of 169 amps (154 x 1.1), which exceeds the
required 165 amps.
4.4

MULTIPLE ADJUSTMENT FACTORS

The following scenario is based on the first example given in 4.2 to demonstrate multiple adjustment
factors. Due to the addition of new process equipment, the ambient air temperature has increased 5C to
45C. In addition, concerns for cable damage resulting from internal construction activities have forced
engineers to consider tray covers at least temporarily for a 2-inch filled cable tray. What effect will these
actions have on the existing tray cable ratings?
From Table 3-1 a factor of 0.95 must be applied to the tabulated ampacities to attain the ampacity rating
at 45C.
From Table 3-3, the adjustment factor to compensate for tray covers will depend on the fill depth. This
will range from 0.78 to 0.85. For a tray fill depth of 2 inches the adjustment factor is 0.81.
For trays having a fill depth of 2 inches, the ampacity shown in the table corresponding to the cable type
in the column for a 2-inch fill depth, should be multiplied by 0.77 (0.95 x 0.81), to attain the correct
ampacity.
4.5

CALCULATING AMPACITIES FOR CABLES NOT COVERED BY TABLES

--```,,``,,`,``,,``,`,,,`,`,,-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---

Calculating the ampacity of cables not specifically covered by the tables can be accomplished by using
the tabulated ampacities for three conductor cables and adjusting for the actual number of conductors
and cable diameter or by using the equation from which the tables were prepared directly. Consider the
following problem.

What is the ampacity of a 7/C No. 12 AWG 600 volt cable installed in a 24-inch wide tray to a 1.5-inch fill
depth? The cable is constructed of insulated copper single conductors and an overall jacket with a 0.60inch cable diameter.
Starting with Table 5-1, the ampacity of a 3/C cable of similar construction can be obtained from ampacity
Table 5-4. A 3/C cable with an overall diameter of 0.42 has an ampacity of 10 amps for 1.5 fill. For a 7/C
cable, this ampacity has to be corrected for both the number of conductors and the difference in cable
diameter. To make this correction, the equation from Section 3.3 is used:

'

=I

'

d 'x
0

I x' = 10

'

3
nx

0.60
3

0.42
7

I x' = 10 1.43 0.655


I x' = 9 amps
If the tray is covered, an additional derating is required. For a 1.5-inch fill depth the adjustment factor from
Table 3-3 is 0.80; therefore,

I x' = 9 amps 0.80 = 7 amps
