Note: Ampacities are based on Table 310.16 of the NEC, 2005 Edition.<br />
‡Allowable ampacities shown are for general use as specified by the National Electrical Code, 2005 Edition, Section 310.15.<br />
If the equipment is marked for use at higher temperatures, the conductor ampacity shall be limited to the following per NEC 110.14(C).<br />
60°C - When terminated to equipment for circuits rated 100 amperes or less or marked for size 14 through 1 AWG conductors.<br />
75°C - When terminated to equipment for circuits rated over 100 amperes or marked for conductors larger than size 1 AWG.<br />
90°C - For ampacity derating purposes.<br />
Per NEC 310.15(B)(2)(a), the ampacity of 4/C cables shall be reduced by a factor of 0.80 when the neutral is considered a current-carrying conductor.<br />
†Available with oversized grounding conductor when used for parallel feeds on special orders.<br />
