7、tice for Electric Installa-tions on Shipboard3. Significance and Use3.1 The selection criteria is to be applied for uses of (1) newcable and (2) replacement cable.3.2 For the selection of new cable or the selection ofreplacement cable, this practice defines the choice criteria forconductor selection

8、 for cables in AWG (ASTM) or metric(IEC) sizes.4. Selection Criteria4.1 When selecting cable for any application, AWG ormetric sizing should be selected according to preferred sizes.The sizes of conductors that have been marked with an asteriskin Table 1 designate preferred sizes per Specification B

9、8 andIEC 60228. Those sizes not marked are given for reference,and it is recommended that their use be discouraged.4.2 When selecting cable for any application, AWG ormetric sizing should be selected with full consideration of therelationship of type of insulation and ampacity. Direct selectionbetwe

10、en AWG and metric sizes can be made only after adetermination of the equivalence of insulation is made.4.3 When selecting cable, the conductor size will be deter-mined from analysis of required ampacity, voltage dropconsiderations, type of cable insulation, and planned installa-tion. Recommended pra

11、ctices for selection and installation ofcable systems are detailed in IEEE STD 45 and IEC 60092-350.4.4 For the selection of cable sizes for new applications,conductor size that satisfies ampacity requirements, voltagedrop factors, and the adequacy for application in the availablecable space must al

12、so be considered.4.5 For the selection of cable sizes for replacementapplications, cable size should be selected in excess of or equalto the replaced cable size. Existing cable space limitationsshould then be determined to ensure that space for installationof the replacement cable is adequate.1This
