If I pass a current through a copper conductor, how can I calculate how hot the conductor will get?
For example, if I have a 7.2kW load powered by 240VAC, the current will be 30A. If I transmit this power to the load via a 2.5mm2
copper conductor, how do I calculate how hot this conductor will get?
