Abstract :
The American Iron and Steel Institute has sponsored an investigation of the current-carrying capacities of wires when installed in multiple in steel raceways with various percentages of raceway fill, in order to supplement the information available on this subject. The results are being presented to the National Electric Code Committee for study, with a view toward possible modification of the Code.
