Answer Posted / nagesh.patwari

Yes there's a thumb rule for cable size calculation for 1sqmm Aluminum cable can carry 2Amps and 1 Sqmm Copper wire can carry 4 Amps.

However the cable size increase above 100 Sqmm this thumb rule can not be considered. You need to refer the cable size calculation chart.
