Table of current loads

Below you can select your appropriate cross-section as a function of the current load (determined at a room temperature of 35 °C and the maximum temperature of the conductor, viz. 70 °C).

Due to other factors usually playing a role as well, the values indicated below are to be seen as a non-binding recommendation.
