Reg: 523.9 said:Where heat dissipation differs in one part of a route to another, the current-carrying capacity shall be determined so as to be appropriate for the part of the route having the most adverse conditions.
So for a 20m cable run where a cable is grouped with 4 circuits for the first 10m and 9 for the second 10m we assume the circuit is grouped with 10 circuits.. but
For a 100m run of XLPE armoured that passes through a thermally insulated wall with a thickness of 50mm we have to assume the entire cable is affected by the 0.88 factor?
I mean, come on, surely the heat will dissipate along its length?
