7 METHODS OF INSTALLATION Table 4A2 lists the methods of installation for which this appendix provides guidanee for the selection of the appropriate cable size. Table 4A3 lists the appropriate tables for selection of current ratings for specific cable constructions, The Reference Methods are those methocls of installation for which the current-carrying, capacities given in Tables 411A to 4J4A have been determined (sce 7.1 below). The use of other methods is not precluded and in that case the evaluation of current-carrying capacity may need to ‘be bused on experimental work. 7.41 Reference Methods ‘The Reference Methods are those methods of installation for which the current-caryi thas been determined by test or calculation, NOTE: Its impractical to calculate and publish curtent ratings for every instalation method, since many would result inthe same current rating. Therefore a suitable (limited) number of current ratings have been calculated which cover all of ‘he installation methods stad in Table 42 and have hoon elled Reference Mets. capaci Reference Method A, for example, Installation Methods 1 and 2 of Table 4A2 (non-sheathed cables and ‘multicore eables in conduit ina thermally insulated wall) ‘The wall consists of an outer weatherproof skin, thermal insulation and an inner skin of wood or woodlike material hhaving a thermal conductance of at least 10 Win?.K. The conduit is fixed such that it is close to, but not necessarily touching, the inner skin. Heat from the cables is assumed to escape through the inner skin only. ‘The conduit can be metal or plastic. Reference Method B, for example, Installation Method 4 of Table 442 (non-sheathed cables in conduit mounted ‘on a wooden or masonry wall and Installation Method S of Table 4A2 (multicore cable in conduit on a wooden or masonry wall) ‘The conduit is unied on a Wooden wall such that the gap between the conduit and the surface is less than 0.3 times the conduit diameter. The conduit ean be metal or plastic. Where the conduit is fixed to a masonry wall the ‘current-carrying capacity of the non-sheathed or sheathed cable may be higher. Reference Method € (clipped direct), for example, Installation Method 20 of ‘Table 4A2 (single-core or multicore eable on a wooden or masonry wall) Cable mounted on a wooden wall so that the gap between the cable and the surface is less than 0.3 times the cable diameter. Where the cable is fixed to or embedded in a masonry wal the current-carrying capacity may be higher. NOTE: The term ‘masonry’ is taken to include brickwork, concrete, plaster and similar (but excluding thermally insulating smateria). Reference Method D, for example, Installation Method 70 of Table 442 (multicore unarmoured cable in condu ‘or in able ducting inthe ground). The enble is drawn into a 100) mm diameter plastic, earthenware or metallic duct laid in direct comtact with soil having a thermal resistivity of 2.5 K.m/W and ata depth of 0.8 m. The values given for this method are those stated in this appendix and are based on conservative installation parameters, Ifthe specific installation parameters are ‘known (thermal resistance of the ground, ground ambient temperature, cable depth), reference can be made to the ‘cable manufacturer or the ERA 69-30 series of publications, which may result ina smaller eable size being selected. NOTE: The curron-carying capacity for cables lad in direct contet with soil having a thormal resistivity of 2.5 Kemv/W and ata depth of 0.7 mis approximately 10% higher than the Values tabulated for Reference Method D. Reference Methods E, F and G, for example, Installation Methods 31 to 35 of Table 4A (single-core or ‘multicore eable in tee air) ‘The cable is supported such that the total heat dissipation is not impeded. Heating due to solar radiation and other sources is to be taken info account. Care is to be taken that natural air convection is not impeded. In practice, 2 clearaee between a cable and any adjacent surface of atleast 0.3 times the cable extemal diameter for multicore cables oF 1.0 times the cable diameter for single-core cables is sullicient to permit the use of current-carrying capacities appropriate to free air conditions. 259260 72 Other Methods: Cable on a floor: Reference Method C applies for current rating purposes. Cable under a ceiling: This installation may appear similar wo Reference Method C but because ofthe reduction innatural air convection, Reference Method B is to be used forthe current rating Cable tray systems: A perlorated cable tray has a regular pattern of holes that occupy atleast 30% of the area of the base of the try, The current-carrying capacity for eables attached to perforated cable trays should be taken as Reference Methods E or F. The eurrent-earrying capacity for cables attached to unperforated eable tays (no holes ‘or holes that occupy less than 30% of the area ofthe base ofthe tray) is to be taken as Reference Method C. Cable ladder system: This is a construction which offers 2 minimum of impedance to the air flow around the cables, ie. supporting metalwork under the eables occupies less than 10% of the plan area. The current-carrying ‘capacity for eables on ladder systems should be taken as Reference Methods E or F. Cable cleats, cable tles and cable hangers: Cable supports hold the cable at intervals along its Tength and permit substantially complete free air Now around the cable, The current-carrying capacity lor cable clea, cable ties and cable hangers should be taken as Reference Methods E or F. Cable installed in a ceiling: This is similar to Reference Method A. It may be necessary to apply the rating Factors cue to bi Not fer ambient temperstures that may arise in junction boxes an similar mounted inthe ceiling, Where a junction box in the ceiling is used forthe supply to luminaire, the het dissipation fom the laminae may provide higher ambient emperatures than permitted in Tables 4DIA to 434A (see also Regulation 5222.1). The temperature may be berween 40°C and 50°C, and a rating factor according to Table 41 must be applied. General notes to all tables in this appendix NOTE 1: Curtent-carrying capacities are tabulated for methods of installation which are commonly used for fixed electrical installations. The tabulated capacities are for continuous steady-state operation (100 % load factor) for de, of ac. of nominal fequency $0 Hz and take no account of harmonic contest. NOTE 2: Tuble 442 itemiss the reference methods of installation to which the tabulated eutren-carcying capacities refer.
