14、on factors for cables in groups running horizontally in free air. Dielectric losses are neglected. It should be read in conjunction with part 2, section 1. 1 Scope The method described in this International Standard is applicable to any type of cable and group running horizontally, provided that the

15、 cables are of equal diameter and emit equal losses. Information is provided on the reduction in permissible current when cables are mounted adjacent to each other. It is limited to the following cases: a) a maximum of nine cables in a square formation, see Figure 1, and b) a maximum of six circuits

16、 each comprised of three cables mounted in trefoil, with up to three circuits placed side by side or two circuits placed one above the other, see Figure 2. Caution is advised where air flow around the cables may be restricted by proximity to neighbouring objects. NOTEFurther work is to be done to ex

17、tend and refine the data and to include the effect of dielectric loss. Information is provided for the following situations: Where a rating for one cable or circuit assumed to be isolated exists, group reduction factors can be derived for the same type of cable, see 4.1. Where previously calculated

18、ratings are not available, the data provided can be used to calculate permissible currents for groups of cables, using the formulae in parts 1 and 2, see4.2. Where adequate clearances can be provided between cables to avoid a reduction in permissible current, see clause 5. 2 Normative references IEC

26、 tand it is convenient to calculate k l at the same time as l t . The term (T 4g /T 4l ) shall be calculated from the ratio (h l /h g ) by the use of the iterative relationship: starting with (T 4g /T 4l ) 1= (h l /h g ). NOTEEquation (4) converges quickly, one evaluation with (T 4g /T 4l ) 1= (h l

27、/h g ) is usually sufficient. Alternatively, when (h l /h g ) is less than 1,4, it is sufficient to substitute (h l /h g ) for (T 4g /T 4l ) in equation (1). Values for the ratio (h l /h g ) are given in Table 1 and in Figure 3 to Figure 5 for groups of multicore cables and for groups of single-core

28、 cables in trefoil formation. NOTEValues for other arrangements of cables should be determined by experiment. 4.2 Where there are previously calculated ratings The current-carrying capacity of the hottest cable in a group shall be calculated using the formulae given in part 2, section 1 for cables i

For the group configurations covered in Table 1 and in Figure 3 to Figure 5, values of the heat emission coefficient h gare derived, from: where the parameter h is given in part 2, section 1, for one

30、multicore cable or for one cable mounted in a trefoil group, assumed to be isolated, and the ratio (h l /h g ) is obtained from Table 1 or Figure 3 to Figure 5 of this standard. 4.3 Groups of cables installed in more than one plane Factors and current-carrying capacities for the hottest cable in a g

33、 isolated, are given in column 2 of Table 1 for various arrangements of cables. The minima have been selected taking into account that it is not practicable to maintain small clearances precisely. Care shall be taken to provide supports adequate to ensure the desired spacing. If a clearance not less

34、 than the appropriate minimum value given in column 2 of Table 1 cannot be maintained over the entire length of the cable, one of the procedures given in clause 6 shall be applied.

35、f a clearance not less than the appropriate value given in column 2 of Table 1 cannot be maintained with confidence throughout the length of the cable, the reduction coefficient shall be determined as follows: For horizontal clearances it shall be assumed that the cables are touching each other or t

36、he vertical surface. Appropriate values of (h l /h g ) are given in column 4 of Table 1 for calculating the reduction coefficient using one of the methods given in clause 4. For vertical clearances the reduction coefficient due to grouping shall be derived according to the value of the expected clea

37、rance: a) where the clearance is less than the appropriate value given in column 2 of Table 1, but can be maintained at a value not less than the minimum given in column 3, a reduction coefficient shall be derived using one of the methods of clause 4 with an appropriate value of (h l /h g ) obtained

38、 either from the formula in column 4 of Table 1 or from one of the curves in Figure 3 to Figure 5; b) where the clearance cannot be maintained at a value not less than the minimum given in column 3 of Table 1, is shall be assumed that the cables are touching each other. Suitable values of (h l /h g

NOTEThe formulae in Table 1 and the curves in Figure 3 to Figure 5 are valid only for the range of clearances indicated in the footnotes to the table and must not be extrapolated. Table 1 Data
