Conductor size calculations
The size cable used for installation depends upon:
● the current rating the cable under defined installation conditions
and
● the maximum permitted drop voltage defined Regulation
525. They are also given Table 14.
The cable rating, denoted It, may determined follows:

The factor given the tables Appendix the IEE Regulations and
Appendix the Site Guide.
The factors which influence the current rating are:
1. Type cable: PVC, MICC, copper conductors aluminium
conductors. Where two cooking appliances
are installed one room, such split-level cookers, one switch may be
used control both appliances provided that neither appliance more
than from the switch (On Site Guide, Appendix 8). Surrounding temperature: cable resistance increases temperature
increases and insulation may melt the temperature too high.Basic Electrical Installation Work

2. That maximum 6. Type protection: for how long will the cable have carry fault
current?
Regulation 525 states that the drop voltage from the supply terminals to
the fixed current-using equipment must not exceed for lighting circuits
and for other uses the mains voltage.3
