Current Rating Guide for Wire
Please see the current rating guide below. You may use this guide to obtain estimated current ratings for wire. The table provided in this
brochure only includes gauges available for standard orders of LSZH cables. For gauges available to the entire Cicoil standard product
line and custom orders, see the unabridged table in the full product catalog, or online at cicoil.com/current-rating-guide.
This guide is for reference only. Current ratings will vary depending on each individual application. Careful calculations must be taken to
assure proper current loads on wire. Always implement circuit interruption for the protection of wire and cable.

UL 94V-0 — Cicoil cable has been tested at UL Laboratories
and shown to:
A. Not have any specimens that burn with aming combustion for
more than 10 seconds after either application of the test ame.
B. Not have a total aming combustion time exceeding 50 seconds
for the 10 ame applications for each set of ve specimens.
C. Not have any specimens that burn with aming or glowing
combustion up to the holding clamp.
D. Not have any specimens that drip aming particles that ignite
the dry absorbent surgical cotton located 12 inches below the
test specimen.
E. Not have any specimens with glowing combustion that persists
for more than 30 seconds after the second removal of the test
ame.
FAA — FAA Flammability Testing
Cicoil cable has been tested and complies with FAA Title 14 CFR,
PART 25—Subpart D, § 25.853 (a) compartment interiors, [Amdt.
25-116, 69 FR 62788, Oct. 27, 2004] Appendix F to Part 25, Part I (a)

Cicoil cable is conrmed to be self-extinguishing. The average
after-ame time must not exceed 15 seconds: and aming
drippings must not continue to burn for more than 5 seconds
after falling to the cabinet oor. This test was conducted in
accordance with the standards established by The Federal Aviation
Administration, as described above.
