Revision Standard – Inactive – Superseded. Superseded by IEEE Std 738-1993 A simplified method of calculating the currenttemperature relationship of bare overhead lines, given the weather conditions, is presented. Along with a mathematical method, sources of the values to be used in the calculation are indicated. This standard does not undertake to list actual temperatureampacity relationships for a large number of conductors in a large number of conditions.
