Note: These values apply to the majority of cases. Further information should be sought in unusual cases eg.: (i) When high ambient temperatures are involved, ie. above 30°C (ii) Where long lengths are used (iii) Where ventilation is restricted (iv) Where the cords are used for other purposes, ego internal wiring of apparatus. | ||
