NOTE:
The maximum continuous current (A)
values for 30°c and 50°c is a value below the
maximum fuse rating allowed for the cable. This
is because the fuse/cable system values at these
temperatures are the continuous usage where as
the maximum fuse also needs to protect for high
current short term loadings such as electric
motors.
When designing wire installations for additional
equipment use the cable size recommended by
the equipment manufacturer or select a suitable
size from the 'Current Rating of Wire Sizes' table.
