  • Abstract
    The cables supplying industrial intermittent processes are usually thermally rated with respect to the maximum load current expected. Here, a novel and much exacter rating method is presented, which allows a significant decreasing of the cable cross section in most of the practical intermittent operation modes. Thus, significant reduction of the installation costs can be achieved without loss of supply quality.
