Cable Derating Guidelines

The document provides guidelines for derating cables based on temperature, specifically for copper wire with Teflon insulation. It includes formulas for calculating ampacity derating depending on the number of wires bundled together and specific temperature thresholds. Additionally, it references various standards and tables for further information on cable ampacity and derating practices.

Cable manufacturers will provide different numbers based on the insulation used for the wire. The (TFE] table below lists copper wire with a Teflon [TF] insulation. Teflon insulation has a higher operation temperature range then other insulators, for example PVC. The [TFE] table below is based on data derived from MIL- STD-97 5, using 7 0°Cas the operating temperature.
