Example for a nickel conductor 1.50 mm² at +200°C

1.) Permissable current at +40°C = 15.8 A

2.) Permissable current at +200°C = 0.78 x 15.8 A = 12.32 A

The values ​​given are only theoretical values.
The actual load limit is always to be considered individually in the application.
Temperature, heat dissipation, atmosphere etc. are urgently to be considered in the measuring.
