Pset_CableSegmentTypeCommon |
Definition from IAI: Properties for the occurrence of an electrical cable, core or conductor that conforms to a type as specified by an appropriate type definition within IFC. NOTE: Maximum allowed voltage drop should be derived from the property within Pset_ElectricalCircuit. |
Property Name (mandatory) |
Property Description and Allowed Values |
Property Value |
Reference |
Reference ID for this specified type in this project (e.g. type A-1 ), provided, if there is no classification reference to a recognized classification system used. |
|
n/a |
DesignAmbientTemperature |
The highest and lowest local ambient temperature likely to be encountered. |
|
0. , 0. (range) |
UserCorrectionFactor |
An arbitrary correction factor that may be applied by the user. |
|
0. |
NumberOfParallelCircuits |
Number of parallel circuits. |
|
0 |
InstallationMethod |
Method of installation of cable/conductor. Installation methods are typically defined by reference in standards such as IEC 60364-5-52, table 52A-1 or BS7871 Appendix 4 Table 4A1 etc. Selection of the value to be used should be determined from such a standard according to local usage. |

DistanceBetweenParallelCircuits |
Distance measured between parallel circuits. |
|
0. |
SoilConductivity |
Thermal conductivity of soil. Generally, within standards such as IEC 60364-5-52, table 52A-16, the resistivity of soil is required (measured in [SI] units of degK.m /W). This is the reciprocal of the conductivity value and needs to be calculated accordingly. |
|
0. |
CarrierStackNumber |
Number of carrier segments (tray, ladder etc.) that are vertically stacked (vertical is measured as the z-axis of the local coordinate system of the carrier segment). |
|
0 |
MountingMethod |
The method of mounting cable segment occurrences on a cable carrier occurrence from which the method required can be selected. This is for the purpose of carrying out worst case cable sizing calculations and may be a conceptual requirement rather than a statement of the physical occurrences of cable and carrier segments. |

IsHorizontalCable |
Indication of whether the cable occurrences are mounted horizontally (= TRUE) or vertically (= FALSE). |
|
false |
IsMountedFlatCable |
Indication of whether the cable occurrences are mounted flat (= TRUE) or in a trefoil pattern (= FALSE). |
|
false |
CurrentCarryingCapasity |
Maximum value of electric current which can be carried continuously by a conductor, a device or an apparatus, under specified conditions without its steady-state temperature exceeding a specified value. Based on IEC60826-11-13. NOTE: The temperature specified value is maximum Design Ambient Temperature. |
|
0. |
MaximumCableLength |
Maximum cable length based on voltagedrop. NOTE: This value may also be specified as a constraint within an IFC model if required but is included within the property set at this stage pending implementation of the required capabilities within software applications. |
|
0. |
PowerLoss |
Total loss of power across this cable. |
