An accurate choice of conductors can only be made when all the following information is known:
* The type of current: single or three phase AC; continuous (DC)
* The ambient temperature
* The maximum current power and duty cycle
* Environment (dusty, coastal, humid, acidic...)
* The allowable volt drop for the machines being supplied
