Notes on calculating the cable cross-section
►
Consider the following factors when calculating the
cable cross-section:
–
Cable material
–
Temperature conditions
–
Cable length
–
Installation type
–
Voltage drop
–
Loss of power in the cable
►
Always follow the IEC 60364-5-52 requirements and
your country-specific installation instructions.
►
France: Follow the installation instructions of UTE 15-
712-1. This standard contains the requirements for
minimum cable diameters and for avoiding overheat-
ing due to high currents.
►
Germany: Follow the installation instructions of
VDE 0100-712. This standard contains the require-
ments for minimum cable diameters and for avoiding
overheating due to high currents.
Specification for wire-end ferrules for the AC cable
Wire-end ferrules must be used to connect the conductors
of the AC cable to the AC terminal block.
Always follow the cable lug manufacturer's
installation instructions.

Instructions on handling aluminum conductors during
installation work
The special properties of aluminum must be taken into
consideration when using aluminum conductors:
● Aluminum "flows," i.e. it gives way under pressure.
●
During stripping, a thin non-conductive oxide layer
forms within a few minutes, which increases the con-
tact resistance between the conductor and clamping
point.
● The specific conductivity and hence the current carry
-
ing capacity is approximately one third less than that
of copper.
NOTICE
To ensure a safe and reliable contact with
aluminum conductors,
always
perform the
following work steps:
►
Keep the installation location as free
as possible from moisture or corrosive
atmospheres.
►
Connect the aluminum cables quickly.
►
Clean the stripped end of the aluminum
conductor mechanically (for example,
using a knife blade to scrape off the
oxide layer), then immediately dip the
aluminum conductor into acid-fee and
alkaline-free (= neutral) Vaseline and
straight away insert it into the Al-Cu
compression joint.
