IEC 60287-1-1:2006
(Main)Electric cables - Calculation of the current rating - Part 1-1: Current rating equations (100 % load factor) and calculation of losses - General
Electric cables - Calculation of the current rating - Part 1-1: Current rating equations (100 % load factor) and calculation of losses - General
Applicable to the conditions of steady-state operation of cables at all alternating voltages, and direct voltages up to 5 kV, buried directly in the ground, in ducts, troughs or in steel pipes, both with and without partial drying-out of the soil, as well as cables in air. The term "steady state" is intended to mean a continuous constant current (100 % load factor) just sufficient to produce asymptotically the maximum conductor temperature, the surrounding ambient conditions being assumed constant. Provides formulae for current ratings and losses. The formulae given are essentially literal and designedly leave open the selection of certain important parameters. These may be divided into three groups: - parameters related to construction of a cable (for example, thermal resistivity of insulating material) for which representative values have been selected based on published work; - parameters related to the surrounding conditions, which may vary widely, the selection of which depends on the country in which the cables are used or are to be used; - parameters which result from an agreement between manufacturer and user and which involve a margin for security of service (for example, maximum conductor temperature).
Câbles électriques - Calcul du courant admissible - Partie 1-1: Equations de l'intensité du courant admissible (facteur de charge 100 %) et calcul des pertes - Généralités
Concerne uniquement le fonctionnement en régime permanent des câbles de toutes tensions alternatives et de tensions continues jusqu'à 5 kV, enterrés directement dans le sol, placés dans des fourreaux, caniveaux ou tubes d'acier, avec ou sans assèchement partiel du sol, ainsi que les câbles posés à l'air libre. On entend par "régime permanent" la circulation continue d'un courant constant (facteur de charge 100 %) juste suffisant pour atteindre asymptotiquement la température maximale de l'âme en supposant que les conditions du milieu ambiant restent inchangées. Fournit des formules pour l'intensité du courant et les pertes. Les formules proposées sont essentiellement littérales et laissent en principe libre le choix de certains paramètres importants. Ceux-ci peuvent être divisés en trois groupes: - les paramètres liés à la constitution du câble (par exemple résistance thermique de l'isolant) pour lesquels des valeurs représentatives ont été recueillies, à partir des travaux publiés; - les paramètres liés aux conditions du milieu, qui peuvent varier considérablement; le choix de ceux-ci dépend du pays où les câbles sont ou doivent être utilisés; - les paramètres résultant d'un accord entre fabricant et utilisateur et qui supposent une marge de sécurité en service (par exemple température maximale du conducteur).

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60287-1-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 20:
Electric cables.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1994, Amendment 1
(1995) and Amendment 2 (2001) The document 20/780/FDIS, circulated to the National
Committees as Amendment 3, led to the publication of this new edition.

FDIS Report on voting
20/851/FDIS 20/867/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of the IEC 60287 series, published under the general title: Electric cables –
Calculation of the current rating, can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in
the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,

INTRODUCTION
This Part 1-1 contains formulae for the quantities R, W , λ and λ .
d 1 2
It contains methods for calculating the permissible current rating of cables from details of the
permissible temperature rise, conductor resistance, losses and thermal resistivities.
Formulae for the calculation of losses are also given.
The formulae in this standard contain quantities which vary with cable design and materials
used. The values given in the tables are either internationally agreed, for example, electrical
resistivities and resistance temperature coefficients, or are those which are generally
accepted in practice, for example, thermal resistivities and permittivities of materials. In this
latter category, some of the values given are not characteristic of the quality of new cables
but are considered to apply to cables after a long period of use. In order that uniform and
comparable results may be obtained, the current ratings should be calculated with the values
given in this standard. However, where it is known with certainty that other values are more
appropriate to the materials and design, then these may be used, and the corresponding
current rating declared in addition, provided that the different values are quoted.
Quantities related to the operating conditions of cables are liable to vary considerably from
one country to another. For instance, with respect to the ambient temperature and soil thermal
resistivity, the values are governed in various countries by different considerations.
Superficial comparisons between the values used in the various countries may lead to
erroneous conclusions if they are not based on common criteria: for example, there may be
different expectations for the life of the cables, and in some countries design is based on
maximum values of soil thermal resistivity, whereas in others average values are used.
Particularly, in the case of soil thermal resistivity, it is well known that this quantity is very
sensitive to soil moisture content and may vary significantly with time, depending on the soil
type, the topographical and meteorological conditions, and the cable loading.
The following procedure for choosing the values for the various parameters should, therefore,
be adopted.
Numerical values should preferably be based on results of suitable measurements. Often
such results are already included in national specifications as recommended values, so that
the calculation may be based on these values generally used in the country in question; a
survey of such values is given in Part 3-1.
A suggested list of the information required to select the appropriate type of cable is given in
Part 3-1.

Part 1-1: Current rating equations (100 % load factor)
and calculation of losses – General
1 General
1.1 Scope
This part of IEC 60287 is applicable to the conditions of steady-state operation of cables at all
alternating voltages, and direct voltages up to 5 kV, buried directly in the ground, in ducts,
troughs or in steel pipes, both with and without partial drying-out of the soil, as well as cables
in air. The term "steady state" is intended to mean a continuous constant current (100 % load
factor) just sufficient to produce asymptotically the maximum conductor temperature, the
surrounding ambient conditions being assumed constant.
This part provides formulae for current ratings and losses.
The formulae given are essentially literal and designedly leave open the selection of certain
important parameters. These may be divided into three groups:
– parameters related to construction of a cable (for example, thermal resistivity of insulating
material) for which representative values have been selected based on published work;
– parameters related to the surrounding conditions, which may vary widely, the selection of
which depends on the country in which the cables are used or are to be used;
– parameters which result from an agreement between manufacturer and user and which
involve a margin for security of service (for example, maximum conductor temperature).

INTRODUCTION
La présente Partie 1-1 contient des formules relatives aux quantités R, W , λ et λ .
d 1 2
Elle contient des méthodes pour le calcul du courant admissible à partir des détails de
l'accroissement admissible de la température de la résistance des conducteurs, des pertes et
de la résistivité thermique.
Des formules pour le calcul des pertes s’y trouvent aussi.
Les formules de cette norme contiennent des paramètres variant avec la spécification du
câble et les matériaux utilisés. Les valeurs données dans les tableaux sont soit approuvées
internationalement, comme les résistivités électriques et la constante diélectrique des
matériaux, ou bien généralement acceptées dans la pratique, comme les résistivités
thermiques et les permittivités des matériaux. Certaines des valeurs de la dernière catégorie
ne sont pas caractéristiques de la qualité des câbles neufs mais de celle des câbles ayant
déjà subi une longue période d'utilisation. Dans le but d'obtenir des résultats comparables et
reproductibles, les régimes permanents doivent être calculés avec les valeurs indiquées dans
la présente norme. Toutefois, lorsqu'on sait avec certitude que d'autres valeurs sont plus
appropriées aux matériaux et à leur mise en œuvre, ces dernières peuvent alors être utilisées
en déclarant le régime permanent correspondant, pourvu que les différentes valeurs soient
indiquées.
Les données relatives aux conditions de service sont susceptibles de varier considérablement
d'un pays à l'autre. Par exemple, pour ce qui est de la température ambiante et de la
résistance thermique du sol, les valeurs sont régies dans les différents pays par diverses
considérations. Une comparaison hâtive entre les valeurs utilisées dans les différents pays
peut amener des conclusions erronées, si elle n'est pas faite sur des bases communes; par
exemple, on peut compter sur des espérances de vie du câble différentes; de même, dans
certains pays, la spécification est établie sur la valeur maximale de la résistance thermique
du sol, tandis que dans d'autres c'est la valeur moyenne qui est utilisée. En particulier, dans
le cas de la résistivité thermique du sol, il est bien connu que celle-ci est très sensible au taux
d'humidité et peut varier sensiblement dans le temps suivant le type de sol, les conditions
topographiques et météorologiques et la charge du câble.
Le choix des valeurs des différents paramètres sera dès lors effectué de la façon suivante.
Les valeurs numériques devront, de préférence, être basées sur des résultats de mesures
valables. De tels résultats sont déjà souvent inclus dans les spécifications nationales sous
forme de valeurs recommandées, de telle sorte que le calcul peut être exécuté sur la base de
ces valeurs, généralement utilisées dans le pays en question; un examen de ces valeurs est
fait dans la Partie 3-1.
On trouvera un choix d'informations nécessaires pour sélectionner le type de câble approprié
dans la Partie 3-1.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.

INTRODUCTION
This Part 1-1 contains formulae for the quantities R, W , λ and λ .
d 1 2
It contains methods for calculating the permissible current rating of cables from details of the
permissible temperature rise, conductor resistance, losses and thermal resistivities.
Formulae for the calculation of losses are also given.
The formulae in this standard contain quantities which vary with cable design and materials
used. The values given in the tables are either internationally agreed, for example, electrical
resistivities and resistance temperature coefficients, or are those which are generally
accepted in practice, for example, thermal resistivities and permittivities of materials. In this
latter category, some of the values given are not characteristic of the quality of new cables
but are considered to apply to cables after a long period of use. In order that uniform and
comparable results may be obtained, the current ratings should be calculated with the values
given in this standard. However, where it is known with certainty that other values are more
appropriate to the materials and design, then these may be used, and the corresponding
current rating declared in addition, provided that the different values are quoted.
Quantities related to the operating conditions of cables are liable to vary considerably from
one country to another. For instance, with respect to the ambient temperature and soil thermal
resistivity, the values are governed in various countries by different considerations.
Superficial comparisons between the values used in the various countries may lead to
erroneous conclusions if they are not based on common criteria: for example, there may be
different expectations for the life of the cables, and in some countries design is based on
maximum values of soil thermal resistivity, whereas in others average values are used.
Particularly, in the case of soil thermal resistivity, it is well known that this quantity is very
sensitive to soil moisture content and may vary significantly with time, depending on the soil
type, the topographical and meteorological conditions, and the cable loading.
The following procedure for choosing the values for the various parameters should, therefore,
be adopted.
Numerical values should preferably be based on results of suitable measurements. Often
such results are already included in
