*Spacings larger than one cable diameter will result in a larger voltage drop.
The above table is in accordance with Table 4D1B of the 17th Edition of IEE Wiring Regulations.
For cables having conductors of 16mm2 or less cross-sectional area their inductances can be ignored and (mV/A/m)r values only are tabulated. For cables having conductors greater than 16mm2, cross-sectional area the impedance values are given as (mV/A/m)z, together with the resistive component (mV/A/m)r and the reactive component (mV/A/m)x.
The above paragraph is extracted from Appendix 4 of the 17th Edition of IEE Wiring Regulations.
