Please consult Customer Service for price and delivery. (1) Ampacities are in accordance with Table 310.60(C)(73) of the NEC for triplexed or three single conductor copper cables in isolated conduit in air based on a conductor temperature of 90˚C (194˚F) or 105˚C (221˚F), temperature denoted in column header, and an ambient air temperature of 40˚C (104˚F). (2) Ampacities are in accordance with Table 310.60(C)(77) of the NEC for triplexed or three single conductor copper cables in underground ducts (three conductors per duct), based on a conductor temperature of 90˚C (194˚F) or 105˚C (221˚F), temperature denoted in column header, and an ambient earth temperature of 20˚C (68˚F), electrical duct arrangement per Figure 310.60 Detail 1, 100% load factor, and earth thermal resistance (rho) of 90. (3) Ampacities are based on single conductor Type MV-105 sizes #1/0 AWG and larger in an uncovered tray in accordance with Section 392.80(B)(2) of the NEC at an ambient air temperature of 40˚C (104˚F); the ampacities are based on 75% of the values per Table 310.60(C)(69), operating temperature denoted in column header. For cable trays with unventilated covers for more than 6 feet, the ampacities shall not exceed 70% of the values per Table 310.60(C)(69). (4) Based on nominal cable diameters, three single cables in the duct (PVC Schedule 40) with no ground wire and a maximum of 40% fill. Jam ratio has been considered but should be checked for individual installations. Note: a) Sizes smaller than 1/0 AWG do not include “FOR CT USE”. b) The NESC Lightning bolt symbol is on all Uniblend® constructions. CONDUIT Phone: 888-593-3355 www.generalcable.com
