Notes:

||||||
|
1. These resistance values are valid only for the parameters as given.
|
||||||
|
Using conductors having coated strands, different stranding type,
|
||||||
|
and, especially, other temperatures changes the resistance.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Equation for temperature change: $R_2 = R_1 [1 + \alpha (T_2—75)]$,
|
||||||
|
where $\alpha_{cu}$ = 0.00323, $\alpha_{AL}$ = 0.00330 at 75°C.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Conductors with compact and compressed stranding
|
||||||
|
have about 9 percent and 3 percent, respectively,
|
||||||
|
smaller bare conductor diameters than those shown.
|
||||||
|
See Table 5A for actual compact cable dimensions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. The IACS conductivities used: bare copper = 100%, aluminum = 61%.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. Class B stranding is listed as well as solid for some sizes.
|
||||||
|
Its overall diameter and area are those of its circumscribing circle.

Notes:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. These values are based on the following constants:
|
||||||
|
UL-Type RHH wires with Class B stranding, in cradled configuration.
|
||||||
|
Wire conductivities are 100 percent IACS copper
|
||||||
|
and 61 percent IACS aluminum,
|
||||||
|
and aluminum conduit is 45 percent IACS.
|
||||||
|
Capacitive reactance is ignored, since it is negligible at these voltages.
|
||||||
|
These resistance values are valid only at 75°C (167°F)
|
||||||
|
and for the parameters as given,
|
||||||
|
but are representative for 600-volt wire types operating at 60 Hz.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. _Effective Z_ is defined as $R \cos(\theta) + X sin(\theta)$,
|
||||||
|
where $\theta$ is the power factor angle of the circuit.
|
||||||
|
Multiplying current by effective impedance
|
||||||
|
gives a good approximation for line-to-neutral voltage drop.
|
||||||
|
Effective impedance values shown in this table
|
||||||
|
are valid only at 0.85 power factor.
|
||||||
|
For another circuit power factor (PF),
|
||||||
|
effective impedance ($Z_{e}$) can be calculated
|
||||||
|
from $R$ and $X_{L}$ values given in this table as follows:
|
||||||
|
$Z_{e} = R \times \rm{PF} + X_{L} \sin[\arccos(\rm{PF})]$.

## Resistivity and Conductivity
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In [[2026-04-14_15-50-06]] I described the relationship
|
||||||
|
between the resistance and conductance...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[**Resistance** and **conductance**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistance_and_conductance)
|
||||||
|
are properties of electrical "objects" or "elements".
|
||||||
|
[**Resistivity** and **conductivity**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistivity_and_conductivity) are properties of **materials**.[^1]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[^1]: It would be more accurate to describe this relationship
|
||||||
|
in terms of [intensive and extensive properties](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_and_extensive_properties).
|
||||||
|
The resistance and conductance of a copper bar
|
||||||
|
would not change if the cube doubled in size,
|
||||||
|
but its resistivity and conductivity
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> Resistivity is commonly represented by the Greek letter ρ (rho).
|
||||||
|
> The SI unit of electrical resistivity is the ohm-meter (Ω⋅m).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> Electrical conductivity (or specific conductance)
|
||||||
|
> is the reciprocal of electrical resistivity.
|
||||||
|
> It represents a material's ability to conduct electric current.
|
||||||
|
> It is commonly signified by the Greek letter σ (sigma),
|
||||||
|
> but κ (kappa) (especially in electrical engineering) and γ (gamma)
|
||||||
|
> are sometimes used.
|
||||||
|
> The SI unit of electrical conductivity is siemens per meter (S/m).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The meaning of these units are not intuitive,
|
||||||
|
but are better understood from the ideal case
|
||||||
|
diagrammed below:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The **resistance** of the conductor
|
||||||
|
is directly proportional to its length $\ell$,
|
||||||
|
and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area $A$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|
R \propto {\frac{\ell}{A}}
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|

Let electrical resistivity $\rho$ be the constant of proportionality.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|
R = \rho \frac{\ell}{A}
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
(This equation is known as **Pouillet's law**,
|
||||||
|
after [Claude Pouillet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claude_Pouillet))
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|
\Leftrightarrow \rho = R \frac{A}{\ell},
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
where
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* $R$ is the electrical resistance of a uniform specimen of the material
|
||||||
|
* $\ell$ is the length of the specimen
|
||||||
|
* $A$ is the cross-sectional area of the specimen
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The meaning of the ohm-meter (Ω⋅m) in this context is difficult to grok.
|
||||||
|
Wikipedia describes it thus:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> ...ohms multiplied by square meters (for the cross-sectional area)
|
||||||
|
> then divided by meters (for the length).

The **conductance** of the conductor
|
||||||
|
is _inversely_ proportional to its length $\ell$,
|
||||||
|
and _directly_ proportional to its cross-sectional area $A$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|
G \propto {\frac{A}{\ell}}
|
||||||

$$

Let electrical conductivity $\sigma$ be the constant of proportionality.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|
\begin{aligned}
|
||||||
|
R &= \sigma \frac{A}{\ell} \\
|
||||||
|
\Leftrightarrow \sigma &= G \frac{\ell}{A},
|
||||||
|
\end{aligned}
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
where
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* $G$ is the electrical resistance of a uniform specimen of the material
|
||||||
|
* $\ell$ is the length of the specimen
|
||||||
|
* $A$ is the cross-sectional area of the specimen
|
||||||

Conductivity, $\sigma$, is the inverse of resistivity:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$
|
||||||
|
\sigma = \frac{1}{\rho}
|
||||||
|
