RING GUIDE, per socket wire thickness/AMPAGE?

[srands]

HI

On socket wire reels (Twin & Earth, Prysmian or any make really), the thickness determines, the associated AMPAGE, hence:
1.0mm = 15A
1.5mm = 20A
2.5mm = 27A
4.0mm = 36A
6.0mm = 46A
10.0mm = 63A
16.0mm = 85A

HOWEVER, what about the approximate RINGED VALUE of each of the SOCKET WIRE TYPES (Twin & Earth)?

In my 17th Edition IEE Guide, only the most common SKT WIRE thickness RINGED, is mentioned:
1.5mm RINGED = 20A x 1.6 = 32A
2.5mm RINGED = 27A x 1.2 = 32A

What about the approximate RINGED AMPAGES of:
1mm, 4mm, 6mm, 10mm, 16mm?

Does anybody have a reliable RING GUIDE? Or anybody have any good approximate figures, from socket wire reels, electrical websites, reference guides, etc?

Cheers

Stephan

bugs hows that rewire of your coming along.. all done and dusted mate!!?? no more shocks lol

Should finish Friday, got a belt of the shower circuit in the loft (lashed up ) cooker hood wired to 13a plug (1.5 te with ccp chopped out ) had a meeting with solicitors surveyor today looks like it's gonna get nasty ,

OHHHHHH just what i like to here!! hope the landlord gets dragged to cleaners and back twice!!

that 4k he paid you will be a drop in ocean!

O do yourself a BIG favour SRAND , and don't dabble into something you OBVIOUSLY have ABSOLUTELY not the foggiest idea about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Leave electrics to the likes of us professionals with YEEAAARS of experiance! even we do occasionally make mistakes,the differances being;we know when we make em,and we CAN correct them!!!!

 

[DurhamSparky]

think we should all now stop posting comments about SRAND now!

move to next subject please nothing to see here any more!

 

[Marnik]

Fair enough, only took the regulars 5 pages,so i thought better to get my penny in!!!!!

 

[ezzzekiel]

sorry what was the question again?

My word you'd think I was asking how to make/buy explosives, detonators, bombs, guns, bio hazard or toxic chemicals!

No wonder Luke Goss, isn't keen on Vampires! (You get it? "I hate vampires", well RING circuits is all about AMPAGE spread/distributed, point being if you don't know what it is on paper, you're not likely to come to the right conclusion, especially if you had it work it out the Kirchoff equation for yourself after not having ever done it before or not for a long time, without being near your reference guides/notes or a computer/laptop).

Anyway solved the Kirchoff equation. So in other words, the offices work it all out for the electricians, so I guess it's a red herring that electricians are good with maths.

See spreadsheet for Kirchoff calc with workings:
