The following is from a separate e-mail I sent to Richard
Stone that I though the rest of the group might find
interest in. In this e-mail exchange, the US NEC was
referenced and so the following is based on the US NEC.
In your post, you did not specify whether the conductors

Hi Richard:
A number of good comments have been made.
I'm not sure anyone covered the fact that
two wires make a bundle, and therefore each
single in that bundle must be derated.
So, a single 10 AWG is good for 32 amps at
20 C. But, two 10 AWG wires in the same
bundle are only good for 31
According to the Belden wire table, 10awg carrying
32 amps will produce a 35C rise above ambient. And
according to them, the bundling factor is 1.0 for 1, 2,
or 3 bundled wires. If you're qualifying anything up
around 40C high temp, your wire's going to be 75C.
5C doesn't give you much ove
Richard,
The larger single wire, with appropriate ring lug, is actually the preferred
construction. The two wire method is used in cases where something else in
the system, such as a multi-wire connector, will only accept the smaller
gauge wire. In that case each ring lug MUST be secured with its

As a quick and simple answer, No. In a single fault condition, one cable
becomes lose / detached. The reaming 32 amp capable see the full 63 amps. The
result smoke, flame, etc.
Expressly forbidden in some standards and knocked out by others under the
single fault conditions.
Only way to do this i
