The root mean square of the electrical current which a device (usually a wire) can carry within a specific environment (including temperature rating, power loss, heat dissipation, etc.) It is measured in amperes, (amps) and is most often used to rate electrical wires and cables
(Mühendislik) Ampacity, sometimes specified by manufacturers as a current rating, is the RMS electric current which a device can carry within specified temperature limitations in a specified environment dependent upon: a) temperature rating, b) power loss, c) heat dissipation
The amount of current a wire can safely carry
The amount of electrical current (amperage) that a conductor can safely carry on a continuous basis
(general): current capacity in amps
The current-carrying capacity of an electrical conductor or device
(See current-carrying capacity)
the maximum continuous current that a conductor can carry without overheating above its temperature rating
-The current in amperes that a conductor can carry continuously under given conditions of use without exceeding its temperature rating
The allowable current carrying capacity of a conductor measured in amperes
Current handling capability The maximum current a conductor can carry without being heated beyond a safe limit
The maximum current an insulated wire or cable can safely carry without exceeding either the insulation or jacket material limitations (Same as Current Carrying Capacity)
A term used to describe the current-handling capacity of an electrical device
The current in amperes that a conductor can carry continuously under the conditions of use without exceeding its temperature rating
Current-carrying capacity of electrical conductor or device
Refers to the how much current a wire can safely carry For example, a 12 gauge electrical copper wire can safely carry up to 20 amps
Current-carrying capacity, expressed in amperes, of a conductor or cable under stated thermal conditions
"Ampere capacity", the maximum allowable continuous current carrying capacity of a conductor without exceeding its temperature rating Measured in Amperes Affected by conductor material, insulation temperature rating, ambient temperature, installation condition and cable grouping
