CURRENT CARRING CAPACITY

Dear Sir,

A current density 1 amp per sq.mm is taken as a basic design factor.

Taking into factors like heating , location, stacking , outside temprature the

normal practice is to employ a factor of 0.7. So you can safely load upto 300

Amps and with a overload of 10 to 15 % for about 10 minutes.
