ICEA P-117-734-2016 Page iv 2016 by the Insulated Cable Engineers Association Preface The first industry ampacity tables were published in December 1943 by the Insulated Power Cable Engineers Association (IPCEA) under the title Current Carrying Capacity of Impregnated Paper, Rubber
25、and Varnished Cambric Insulated Cables. These tables were based on the best available information at the time they were published and served the industry well for many years. As a result of interest in this subject by the AIEE Insulated Conductors Committee and recognition of the fact that new techn
26、iques had been developed for making ampacity calculations through greater understanding of the thermal circuit, a joint AIEE-IPCEA Working Group was formed to prepare a new ampacity publication. In 1962 a completely new edition was published in two volumes for copper and aluminum conductor entitled
27、Power Cable Ampacities, AIEE Pub. No. S-135, IPCEA Pub. No. P-46-426 1. (IPCEA was changed to ICEA in 1979, dropping the “P” for power when communications manufacturers joined the association) This publication covered several cable types including, for the first time, oil-filled and gas-filled impre
28、gnated paper insulated cables in a variety of installations. The ampacities in these tables are still considered appropriate for the designated installation conditions and parameters. The 1962 tables do not adequately cover ampacities for single-conductor solid-dielectric cables with shields designe
29、d for stringent fault current conditions and directly buried concentric-neutral three-phase cables. The increasing use of these constructions prompted the Cable Characteristics Subcommittee of the IEEE Power Engineering Society to consider a supplement to these tables. A Task Group was formed to stu
30、dy the problems and to prepare this publication. In particular the Group considered the effect on ampacities of (1) shield losses in single-conductor cables and (2) temperatures in the earth surrounding buried cables and ducts. Subsequently, Tables 1 through 80 were approved on March 22, 1972 by IPC
31、EA and NEMA as Authorized Engineering Information. On May 17, 1976, IPCEA and NEMA approved the expansion of this publication to include 69 kV cables. This resulted in the revision of paragraphs A through E and Tables A and B and in the addition of Tables 81 through 128. On September 26, 1988, NEMA
32、reaffirmed the ICEA P-53-426/NEMA WC50 standard In 2008 the Utility Power Cable Standards Technical Advisory Committee (UPCSTAC) Task Group was formed to address the need for tables to cover ampacities for single-conductor cables with an extruded LLDPE jacket which had become the standard cable desi
33、gn for Utility distribution cables 15 kV through 35 kV. These tables are intended to compliment the IEEE 835 Standard Power Cable Ampacity Tables-1994.
