BS7671 Grouping Factors

Mark Freeman

Hi,

With reference to BS7671, in table 4C1 (Page 396) it states that:  Where horizontal clearances between adjacent cables exceed twice their overall diameter, no rating factor need be applied.

However when I reviewed table 4C4 (Page 398) it states that where the installation consist of a number of cables per ladder on a single tier, providing that they are spaced 1 cable diameter apart, no derating need be applied - as all tge 

Can anyone advise why one table states 2 OD spacing and the other states 1 OD spacing.

Many thanks!

    I don't see that in 4C4, it does give derating factors if spaced 1 cable diameter apart.
