I am presently making a cable sizing program for our team to be applied here in Canada and meets CEC 2006 code. In doing the voltage drops, I needed Resistance and Reactance values typically, they will be in ohms/1000ft.
To be uniform and not manufacturer dependent, I am planning to use Table 4A-7 of IEEE Std. 141-1993 (RED BOOK). However, I noticed that the minimum conductor size is only No. 8 AWG. Is there a way I can estimate Nos. 14, 12 and 10AWG based from this table?
Is there any universal table which I can use which still provide some acceptable level of conservativeness?
Thanks and I appreciate any assistance provided.
