BASIC ASSUMPTION FOR CURRENT RATINGS & RATING FACTORS
SCOPE
The current ratings of cables as indicated in various tables have been calculated on certain assumed conditions.
In actual practice these conditions may be different. Therefore to determine the actual current ratings as per installation conditions, the tabulated
ratings shall be multiplied with appropriate factors
a) Basic assumption for current ratings
I) Maximum permissible temperature - 90°C for XLPE insulation, 70°C for general purpose PVC, 85C for HR PVC
ii) Ground/Duct temperature - 30°C
iii) Ambient temperature - 40°C
iv) Thermal resistivity of soil - 150°C cm/W
v) Thermal resistivity of Dielectric 650°C cm/W for PVC, 350°C cm/W for XLPE
vi) Single core cables installed in one circuit in following arrangement Voltage Grade Depth of Laying
OR
vi) Multicore cables installed in single circuit 1.1KV cables 750mm

XLPE 1.12 1.08 1.04 1.00 0.96 0.91 0..87 0.82
iii) Rating factors related to variation in ground thermal resistivity of soil for 3 single core cables laid direct in ground. (Average value)
iv) Rating factors related to variation in ground thermal resistivity of soil for multi core cables laid direct in ground. (Average value)
