    The document provides an ampacity table showing the current carrying capacity in amps of aluminum bus bars of various sizes made of 6101-T61 alloy under different conditions. The table lists the ampacities for 1, 2, 3, and 4 parallel bars of varying widths and thicknesses for both 60 Hz AC and DC applications. Notes below the table provide additional information on the ratings and assumptions used to generate the ampacity values in the chart.

    1. Ratings based on 30C rise over 40C ambient in
    still but confined air (e=0.35), corresponding to
    usual indoor temperature. Vertical bar ampacity
    based on work by industry sources.
    2. Space between bars is assumed equal bar

    3. For ac phase spacings less than 18 inches an
    allowance for proximity effect must be made.
    4. Ratings are based on horizontal mounting, in air
    with no attachments. For DC ratings of other alloys,
    multiply by: For 6101-T61, 0.982, for 60 Hz use of
    this multiplier is conservative.
