Power Rating Table For TP90 (1) .TP90 Multi Core

This document provides current carrying capacity ratings for various sizes of multi-core cables at different ambient temperatures and installation configurations. It includes 6 tables that specify ampacity derating factors based on number of circuits, ambient temperature, whether cables are touching or spaced, and other conditions. The tables provide guidance for properly sizing cables to carry rated load currents while preventing overheating.
