Answer / p.parthasaradhy
Normally, the cable manufacturer will provide the cuurent
carrying capacity of a cable. As the cable size increases,
the current density per sq.mm. will be reducing. Also, based
on the distance between the cables during the layout in the
duct the multiplying factor changes ( less than one). the
loading is more for an underground cable is more as compared
when the cable is laid above the ground.
