In other words how many amps can it transmit. On or at surfaces. The following chart is a guideline of ampacity or copper wire current carrying capacity following the handbook of electronic tables and formulas for american wire gauge.
Tables extract from vde 0298 t4 0613 tables. All values assume an ambient temperature of 300c and a conductor operating temperature of 700c. Load carrying capacities see table below definition. For cables having flexible conductors see section 24 of this appendix for adjustment factors for current carrying capacity and voltage drop.
Calculate cross section and conversion factors for cables and wires. Where it is intended to group a cable in this table with other cables the cable should be rated at the lowest of the maximum operating temperatures of any of the cables in the group see regulation 51215. 11 17 18 21 26 and 27 current carrying capacity cables with a nominal voltage up to 1000 v and heat resistant cables vde 0298 t4 0803 table 11 column 2 and 5.
