When simulating objects that are buried deeper than a couple of metres one needs to consider the thermal inertia of the surrounding soil. Cableizer offers an alternative approach to calculate the ampacity with an equivalent depth for deeply buried objects.

In addition to the existing IEC 60287 method, partial soil drying-out can now also been calculated based on the VDE standard 0276-1000, a method that is especially suitable for cyclic loads. It is also know as 'Heinhold' method due to its publication in the famous book by L. Heinhold and R. Stubbe. The method is based on the brilliant work from Dipl.-Ing. Franz Winkler from Siemens AG.

Results from cable crossing simulations can sometimes be confusing at a first glance. Based on a real example, we investigate the influence of the crossing angle on the cable rating.
