Power and Wiring Cables Technical Information Fire Resistant Armoured Cables to BS 00/00V For further guidance refer to the BS1 (IEE Wiring Regulations - latest edition). For cables of seven core and above it is assumed only two cores are loaded simultaneously (i.e. live and neutral) and the two core rating should be taken. For ambient air temperatures other than 0 C, the following factors should be applied.
