Estimate cable ampacity by conductor and cross-section (IEC 60364).
基于 IEC 60364 思路,根据导体材料、截面、敷设方式、环境温度及修正系数估算电缆持续载流量。

| Constant | Value | Unit | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Volume resistivity of annealed copper (20 ℃) | 1.7241e-8 (= 0.017241) | Ω·m (Ω·mm²/m) | IEC 60028 (IACS 100%) |
| Volume resistivity of hard-drawn aluminium (20 ℃) | 2.8264e-8 (= 0.028264) | Ω·m (Ω·mm²/m) | IEC 60028 / IEC 60228 |
| Temperature coefficient α₂₀ (Cu / Al) | Cu 0.00393 / Al 0.00403 | K⁻¹ | IEC 60028 |
| Reference ambient temperature for correction | 30 | ℃ | IEC 60364-5-52 ampacity table basis (both PVC and XLPE use 30 ℃ here) |
| Derating factors by installation method | Free 1.00 / wall 0.95 / tray 0.90 / conduit 0.80 / buried 0.85 | — | Common engineering values (defer to IEC 60364-5-52 / GB/T 16895 tables) |
Note: the base ampacity I₀ comes from an empirical fit over material, cross-section and insulation class, and Iz = I₀×k₁×k₂×k₃×k₄ is a simplified chain of correction factors; consult the IEC 60364-5-52 / GB/T 16895 ampacity tables directly for formal design.
