The above table is in accordance with Table 4H3B of the 16th Edition of IEE Wiring Regulations. The Current Carrying Capacities in this appendix are based upon the following reference ambient temperatures: For non-sheathed and sheathed cables in air, irrespective of the Installation Method: 30ºC For buried cables, either directly in the soil or in ducts in the ground: 20ºC The current ratings stated are based on conservative assumptions, and therefore, in some instances, may be adjusted according to the ambient installation and operating conditions.
