#171852 - Sounds like nonsense to me! Responding to: ???'s previous message |

The customer wants to double the cross section in each of the above case, and says that besides electrical rating, mechanical strength and safety margin also is to be considered. The cross-sectional area is really only to do with electrical ratings. If he wants special mechanical ratings, then different types of sheathing, armour, etc are available. Don't forget that doubling the CSA will also make the cable much heavier - bringing a whole load of other issues... But I feel that my selection is adequate. I think you're probably right! |
