Conductor sizes are nominated by the Wiring Rules (AS/NZS 3000) for the
wiring of socket outlets and lighting circuits in domestic and commercial
buildings.
For other types of installations:
a) The cable must be capable of carrying the maximum continuous load of
the circuit, with due regard for the insulating material and conditions of
installation.
b) The voltage drop from the consumer’s terminals to any point in the
installation must not exceed 5% of the nominal system voltage.
Simplified tables of current ratings and voltage drops for commonly used
cables are given on pages 70-92. In large installations where current ratings
are critical, attention is drawn to the comprehensive tables given in AS/NZS
3008.1.1:2009.
2. Installation conditions
Nexans Olex cables are available for aerial, underground and submarine
installations as well as in conduit, on racks or trays in air. Special
constructions available include:
• Brass or copper taped or nylon sheathed cables for resistance to termite
and marine borer.
• Steel wire armoured for areas where there is a high risk of mechanical
damage.
• Alsecure® fire performance low smoke halogen free cables for emer­gency
power and lighting and other purposes in areas of high fire risk.
• Alsecure® Ceramifiable® is a world first in fire performance cable with a
polymer layer that hardens into a protective shield when exposed to fire.
• Versolex,® the new high performance multipurpose cable for fixed and
flexible applications.
• Lead alloy sheathing as a barrier to moisture or hydrocarbons.
• Alsecure® Envirolex® cables with low smoke emission and no halogen or
lead for environmentally sensitive areas.
• Flexolex® cables for flexible applications and where flexibility provides
advantages during installation.

CABLE SELECTION
CABLE INSTALLATION
3. Cable insulating and sheathing materials
In all cases, cables must be installed in compliance with the safety requirements
of AS/NZS 3000.
Particular attention should be paid to the following:
• Current carrying capacities of cables depend on the temperature of the air or
ground in which they are installed and the degree to which heat can escape.
Except for a group of single core cables carrying the phase currents of a circuit,
cables should be spaced to allow heat to escape.
• Wherever cables are installed in close proximity, especially in the ground, or
enclosed in such a way as to restrict heat loss, their current carrying capacities
must be reduced using a derating factor appropriate to the situation.
• For minimum voltage drop single core cables carrying the phase currents of
a single circuit should be installed as closely as possible together, to minimise
inductive reactance. The preferred formation for three phase conductors
is a “trefoil” or cloverleaf pattern although flat formation may also be used.
Sheaths should be in contact with one another in either case.
A single core cable generates an alternating magnetic field around itself which can
cause large increases in voltage drop and power loss due to “transformer effect”
when ferrous metal (iron and steel) is allowed to encircle the cable. Steel racking
or ladder will not cause trouble, but the following must be observed:
• Steel wire or tape armour is never used on a single core cable for AC use.
• Where three single phase cables pass through a steel bulkhead all must pass
through the same hole. Where glanding is required it is usual to cut out a panel
and replace this with a non-ferrous (metal or plastic) plate in which the three
or four glands are mounted. Should plastic or non-ferrous gland plate material
not be available, an alternative is to cut a slot (hacksaw blade width is adequate)
between adjacent gland holes. This will provide physical and electrical isolation
for the eddy current paths and stop the cable from overheating.
Standard Nexans Olex cables are available in a number of materials, including:
• Nexans Olex PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) insulated and sheathed cables are the
economic choice for general wiring. They are resistant to occasional contact
with most oils and solvents, clean and easy to handle and coloured to assist
phase identification. PVC is suitable for operating temperatures up to 90°C and
90°HT, subject to the requirements of AS/NZS‑3000. PVC is inherently resistant
to ultraviolet radiation and although some colours may fade the material will not
significantly degrade due to the effects of sunlight and weather, maintaining its
physical integrity if not physically abused. Care should be taken where cables are
subjected to extremes of temperature or contact with crude petroleum, caustic
materials or aromatic solvents.
• Nexans Olex synthetic rubber (EPR/CPE) insulated and sheathed cables are more
flexible and have better resistance to oils and solvents than PVC.
• Nexans Olex EPR (Ethylene Propylene Rubber), while not oil resistant, has excellent
dielectric properties and high voltage grades are available for cables up to 33kV.
In addition, EPR is halogen free and therefore does not emit toxic or corrosive
by-products when burned.
• Nexans Olex CPE (Chlorinated Polyethylene) is an excellent flexible insulation and
heavy duty sheathing material. Although having lower insulation resistance than
EPR it is suitable for low voltage cable insulation and is used as such in welding
cables because of its oil resistance.
• X-90 (Cross-linked Polyethylene) has very high dielectric properties. It is halogenfree and also free of heavy metals such as lead and antimony. It has low smoke
and toxicity when burned. It is a suitable alternative to PVC and is becoming more
widely specified where there are environmental concerns.
• Ceramifiable® – An insulation material that is polymeric in its normal state,
but converts to an insulating ceramic that provides circuit integrity when burned.
Normal state properties are suitable for continuous operation at 90°C or 110°C
as selected. It is halogen-free, lead and antimony-free, and does not emit toxic
or corrosive products when burned.
• HFS-110-TP. Nexans Olex offers this thermoplastic, halogen and heavy metal-free
sheathing as an alternative to PVC when these characteristics are required.
The material has reasonable oil resistance and flexibility, with a high resistance
to spread of fire.

A Circular Mil. (C.M.) is the area of a circle 1 mil in diameter.
The term “M.C.M.” refers to an area of 1000 Circular Mils and is the same as “kcmil.”
1.0mm2 is approximately 1974 Circular Mils.

Note: The American Wire Gauge (AWG) was originally known as the Brown & Sharp (B&S)
Gauge and both terms are synonymous. The gauge number can apply to a single wire or to a stranded
or bunched conductor. The cross-sectional areas given apply to single wire only. The larger gauges
are sometimes written using a number to denote the number of zeroes, e.g. 0 gauge can be written
1/0 and 000 as 3/0.

Notes: 1. For PVC flexible conduits, the recommendations are based on conduits used without fittings
or with fittings only at the ends of the conduit run. Where intermediate fittings are used in a run of
PVC flexible conduit, an appropriate reduction should be made in the number of cables drawn into the
conduit. 2. One earth wire of appropriate size, as determined by the requirements of AS/NZS 3000, may
be inserted in all conduits, provided that its insertion does not prevent easy drawing in of cables. 3. Table
suitable for use with Nexans Olex manufactured product only.

provided for bedding to body sealing (see fitting instructions). Alternatively, discard the seals and use the
epoxy resin and insert to provide a barrier. When ordering add ‘B’ to the standard code as indicated in
