THE IMPORTANCE OF CABLE MANAGEMENT

A number of aspects relating to fire safety are important when building DC infrastructure. Primarily, cabling must be installed undamaged, connectors must be put on reliably and the maximum cable length must be taken into account when sizing the cabling. When under-dimensioned, the resistance of a cable is higher and the heat dissipation will be higher. As a result, the temperatures will rise. It is therefore important that this cable calculation is done properly. To prevent potential differences induction loops should be avoided. This risk is reinforced by possible lightning discharges.
