Answer / manoranjan

Use of formula is always a cumbersome exercise.
In pactical 1.5A/sqmm for al,cable & 2.5A/sq.mm is
considered in practical way. means a 50sqmm Al cable will
carry at least 75A and same size copper cable will carry
125A.

Answer / satish

Thumb rule
For Al Conductor Cable Multiply Sq mm size by 1.5.
&
For Cu cable Multiply sq mm size by 4.
e.g.
70 sq mm Al Cable can take 70×1.5=105 A
&
16 sq mm Cu cable can take 16×4=64 A

Answer / gaurav

1.0 To 1.5A/sqmm for al,cable & 2.0 TO 2.5 A/sq.mm is
considered in practical way. means a 50sqmm Al cable will
carry at least 75A and same size copper cable will carry
125A.

Answer / martin

Check the CCC by any supplier's brochure.
Derate the CCC on the following parameters
Maximum Ambient temp.
Cable buried UG / on air
Clearance between adjuscent cables.
185 mm2 4 c Alu XLPE cable's ccc = 200 Amps in the Gulf.

Answer / devi prasad

for cu current in z sq mm = z× 4Amp
for ALU =Z×2 Amp

Answer / aloke kumar pati

My experience with electricity does not agree with the above answers. For years I have used a 1.5 sq. mm. Al service line for a load of at least 2 KW (ignoring the motor- based appliances whose initial current is much higher). This load required at least 9 amps. which came through the 1.5 sq. mm. Service line! Thus the 'thumb-rule' of multiplying sq. mm. by 1.5 to get the amperage in Aluminium cable is belied in the above instance given by me.

In secondary transmission i.e., in distribution side, supply for homes are connected through different phases in order to balance the 3 phase load. But in practical we saw nearby house doesn't have power due to single phasing. But other two phases give supply. How it's possible? it doesn't make "single phasing"?
