Figure. 5.4.12 - 124. General presumptions of high-voltage cables.

If the installation conditions vary from the presumed conditions manufacturers may give additional

information on how to correct the the current-carrying capacity to match the changed conditions.

Below is an example of the correction factors provided a manufacturer (Prysmian) for correcting the

current-carrying capacity.
