● Where one side the cable contact with thermal insulation
we must read the current rating from the column the table which
relates reference method (see Table 14.
Having calculated the cable rating, the smallest cable should chosen
from the appropriate table which will carry that current. This cable must
also meet the voltage drop Regulation 525 and this should calculated
as described earlier.1 the preface Appendix of
the IEE Regulations. When the calculated value less than for lighting
and for other uses the mains voltage the cable may considered
suitable.
