We use industry leading CYMCAP power cable ampacity software to provide cable ampacity calculations in line with IEC 60287. These range from low voltage industrial applications up to transmission scale substation interconnection projects. We analyse standard installations, utility crossings, multiple duct banks, installations in ground air and water, in addition to horizontal directional drilling assessments. Cable rating determines the safe, maximum continuous current a conductor can carry without overheating.

We use industry leading SES earthing software CDEGS to model earthing systems in order to verify compliance with IEEE80, EN 50522 & National Specifications as appropriate.
