We performed ampacity calculations for hundreds of industrial and utility power cables from Southwire. The assumptions used for modelling in the software are explained. The calculated ampacities were all within 3 % of the values given in ICEA and NEC standards.

This article analyses the magnetic fields produced by electrical power cables installed in various configurations under varying conditions in the context of a health and safety-related issue. A software program has been used for calculating the results based on the Biot-Savart law. Techniques for the mitigation of magnetic fields are also presented.

The calculation of submarine cable current ratings is different from land cables due to their complex construction and installation conditions.

Comprehensive analysis of field inversion, IEC 60287 Standards, finite element modelling, and case studies to optimise HVDC cable ampacity and insulation design.

The current rating of bare conductors is affected by the conductor temperature, weather parameters, heat losses due to convection and radiation, the solar heat gain and conductor resistance, the calculation of which is governed by a steady-state and a non-steady-state heat balance equation.

New methods address IEC 60287 limitations for soil drying calculations. Considers multiple circuits, load factor, and backfill installations for accurate power cable ampacity.
