1. Cable derating amp should be higher than full load current of load.
2. Cable voltage drop should be less than defined voltage drop.
3. No. of cable runs ≥ (Full load current / Cable derating current).
4. Cable short circuit capacity should be higher than system short circuit capacity at that point.
