What is Ampacity Calculations per IEEE 738 about?

This document calculates the steady state ampacity of an overhead contact system using AREMA and IEEE standards. It provides details on the conductor properties and environmental conditions, then performs calculations to determine the heat losses and gains based on factors like wind speed, temperature and solar radiation. It solves the heat balance equation to find that the maximum current carrying capacity is 369.95 amps.
