For welding cable application.
Welding cable ampacity also known as current capacity or amperage rating refers to the maximum amount of electrical current that a cable can safely conduct.
Besides the cross sectional area other factors that impact the ampacity of welding cable are its length ohm rating i e resistance rating temperature ratings of the insulation.
These values for current carrying capacity are based on a copper temperature of 60 c 140 f an ambient temperature of.
The important specs to go by when choosing the appropriate wire that is suitable for your applications are the wire gauge amp voltage rating and the length needed.
Description these values for current carrying capacity are based on a copper temperature of 60 c 140 f an ambient temperature of 40 c 104 f and yield load factors from approximately 32 for the 2 awg cable to approximately 23 for.
