3.0 Methodology THERI'AO-LAG CONDUIT CABLE Ri Rt Rs Rg Heat transfer will be calculated per foot of raceway length in accordance with the following relationship:
q (Tc-Ta) / (Ri + Rg + Rt + Rs) q Rate of heat transfer from raceway Tc Temperature of conductor (90'C/194'F)
Ta Ambient temperature (40'C/104'F)
Ri Thermal resistance of all items within the raceway including the raceway itself Rg Thermal resistance of the air gap between the raceway and the fire barrier material Rt Thermal resistance of the fire barrier material Rs Thermal resistance at the surface of the protected or unprotected raceway The heat transferred from the raceway under steady state conditions is essentially equal to the I'R losses within the conductors. These heat values can be determined from the test data based on the measured current and size of conductor used.
Tc and Ta are fixed test parameters with values which are listed above.

determined based on test data and physical properties as follows:
Ri will be calculated from the test data for raceway without fire barrier Rg will be calculated from the test data for raceway with a I hour barrier Rt will be calculated based on the known thermal conductivity (k) for The~mn-Lag Rs will be based un known physical properties considering convection arid radiation heat transfer.
After all of the thermal resistance values have been established, the heat transferred can be calculated for the raceway with the three hour barrier.
Since the heat is a function of the current squared, the ampacity correction factor (ACF) will be determined by the following relationship.
ACF I/I V(q,~q where the subscript p refers to the protected raceway Assumptions/Bases The effect of inductive losses in the raceway and cable sheath will be negligible with respect to applying the test data to the Turkey Point and St. Lucie configurations, 4.2 Surface emittance for cable, raceway, and Thermo-Lag will be assumed to be equal to 0.9.
Note that a high emittance value will reduce the thermal resistance at the surface having an overall effect of maximizing the ampacity de-rating.
4.3 Heat transfer through the sides of cable tray will be assumed to be zero. This will reduce the heat transfer equation for tray to a one dimensional heat transfer equation. As the tested cable tray is relatively wide ,24", this is expected to be a good approximation for all cable tray.
4.4 One hour Thermo-Lag fire barrier will be assumed to be at the minimum thickness of 1/2" (I/4" for overlay where used). This thickness will provide a conservative value when calculating the R value for the gap between the raceway and the barrier.
4.5 Three hour Thermo-Lag fire barrier will be assumed to be at the nominal thickness in accordance with the manufacture's tolerance, l-l/4 inches. This thickness'will provide a conservative result when calculating the heat transferred with the three hour barrier, as the value of the initial I hour wrap was minimized. It was judged to be unrealistically conservative to go to the maximum thickness tolerance of 1.5 inches.
4.6 Raceway is made of rigid steel, magnetic material, which is typical for power plant installations.
Banked conduit which is banked in a single plane can be assumed to be equivalent to cable tray. Both configurations involve a cable mass arranged in a shallow rectangular section.
Both configurations involve an air gap between the cables and the fire barrier material.

In doing sc, it vriQ reduce the inQow of energy into the system and maintain the internal temperature below maximum limits. These limits will ensure that the cable systems remain functional during a fire, and allow operators to maintain control of systems required for fire safe shutdown.
The addition of a Are . rotective Envelope on a cable system will not only protect the contained cable from elevated temperatures associated with a fire, but will impede the heat dissipation associated with cable operation. The evaluation described herein will yield aa accurate and realistic value for the ampacity deratiag of cables when a Fire Protective Envelope is iastaQed on the cable system.
This entire test prolpmn was performed in accordance with Texas Utilities Electric TEST PLAN, Rev. 4, which has been included in Appendix B. The specific details of this project wiQ be found in that document.
TEA ENCLOSURE The ampacity test enclosure was constructed of steel stud waQs and ceiling with a minunum of I in. of polystyrene insulatioa liaing the interior of the room. The overaQ dimensions of the test enclosure were 20 ft. x 18 &. x 8 ft. An entry door was provided in oae wall and an observation window was placed in an adjacent waQ. The waQ with the observation window was made to be removable to facilitate easier location of test articles. Four 1.5 kW heaters were disposed about the room to regu1ate ambient conditions. Two of the heaters were vaxiable from outside of the test enclosure via connection to standard laboratory variable transformers.
Located directly behind each heater was a 24 in. box fan to gently stir the air and more evenly distribute the heat. A total of nine thermocouples were suspended from the ceiling and positioned ia the horizontal plane of the test items, 12 in.
away Epsom various test items to monitor the ambient room temperatures. Two stanchions were erected to support the test articles. Each staachion consisted of a length of 2 in. square steel tubing supported at several points by an A-frame leg.
A length of 2 in. x 4 in. wood stud was aQixed to the top surface of each stanchion.
In the case of all but the 5 ia. conduit, the test article with the fire protective system installed was tested first. Once the system had attained. equilibrium and aQ final measurements h'ad been tatea, the fire protective barrier was removed from the system (in the case of the air drop assemblies and the cable tray

THERMOCOUPUK Temperatures on the cable conductors within the conduit and air drop assemblies were measured with Type T, 24 gauge, Copper-Constantan electrically welded thermocouples formed from Copper and Constantan wires of special limits of error (&.5'C)," and covered with TeQon FEY insulation. Temperatures on the cable conductors within the cable tray assembly were measured with Type K, 24 gauge, Chromel-Alumel electrically welded thermocouples formed from Chromel and Alumel wires of "special limits of error (21.1'C)," and covered with braided fiberglass insulation. All thermocouple wire was calibrated to &.5'C.
DATAACQUXSZZXON SYSTEM The outputs-of the test article thermocouples and room control thermocouples were monitored by a data acquisition system consisting of a John Fluke Mfg. Co.
Model HELIOS I 2289A Computer Front End, and an Apple Computer Co.
Macintosh Classic microcomputer. The Computer Front End was connected to the RS422 Serial Interface Port of the Macintosh. The computer was prograxnmed in Microsoft BASIC to command the HELIOS unit to sample the data input lines, receive and convert data into a digital format, and to manipulate the data for display on screen, the hard copy printout, and saving to hard disk. The computer program determined, and displayed, the average temperatures at each of the three positions on each test article. The rate of change of temperature for the average of the thermocouples located in the center portion of the test article was.
then calculated. All individual data points and calculated values were saved on hard disk at one minute intervals. A record of individual location temperatures, maximum temperatures and rates of change of temperatures was printed at five minute intervals. All test data is presented in Appendix F: TEST DATA.
CONTROL SYSTEM The current Qow through the test articles was regulated using process control type devices. The available voltage for any test control circuit was 208 Vac single phase. A Silicon Controlled RectIfier (SCR) device (Halmar Robicon Group Model No. 140P-FK2-CL) was used to vaxy the voltage available to the primary side of a step-down transformer between 0 Vac and 208 Vac in proportion to a 4-20 mA control input. The test article was connected to the secondary side of the step-down transformer. A proportional-integral-derivative process controller (Honeywell Universal Digital Controller Model No. UDC 3002-0-000-1-00-XXXK) was responsible for generating the '4-20 mA signal fed to the SCR device, based on a voltage feedback loop. A current transforxner (Flex-Core Model No.58-151, 150:5 a "oJ~

The output of the current transformer was connected to a current transducer (Flex-Core Model No.
CT5-005A) with a mA to mV converter (Flex-Core Model No. LRB-10000) to produce a 0-10 Vdc signal proportional to 'a 0-150 A or 0-1000 A current span in the sample conductor. This 0-10 Vdc signal is used as the 'process variable" in the feedback loop to the controller. In essence, the above circuitry made up a constant-current device, insensitive to line voltage changes.
The current in aay given system was driven to a level high enough to bring the conductor to 90'C as quickly as possible by increasiag the'output signal of the process controller via keypad commands. As the conductor temperature approached 90'C, the current level was reduced aad the test article was given time to respond to current changes before another adjustment was made to the current. During this time period, the controller was turned to "automatic" control and the "process variable set point" (the voltage output from the current transformer that represents the current level at which the controller will maintain the system) was adjusted to the same value as the displayed process variable (the controller varies its output ia order the maintain the process variable at the level indicated by the set point).
This process of adjusting the controller output (and the control variab1e set point) and waiting for the system to stabilize (about 1/2 hour to about 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, depending upon the nature of the system) was coatinued until the temperature parameters of the test article were within the specified limits. The coatroller was allowed to operate the system for a muumum of three hours. If, at the end of three hours, the system was still within the bounds of all specifications, a final current and voltage measurement were taken and the system was deemed .to be in equilibrium.
s All final current measurements were performed using ammeters suppHed and calibrated by Texas UtiTities Electric. These ammeter used were manufactured by James Biddle Co. and identified as Biddle Iastruments Digital Clamp-On RMS Volt-Ammeter, Cat. No. 278001 (TU Electric ID No. IC-1029 and IC-1030).
Measurements recorded for test items containing 3C/¹10 AWG of 3C/¹6 AWG cable were taken with the ammeter ID No. IC-1030. Current measurements recorded for test items containing 750 kCMil cable were taken with the ammeter ID No. IC-1029. Calibration documentation for these devices can be found i' Appeadix G: Quality Assurance.

In doing so, it will reduce the inQow of energy into the system and maintain the internal temperature below maximum limits. These limits will ensure that the cable systems remain functional during a fire, and allow operators to maintain control of systems required for fire safe shutdown..
The addition of a Fire Protective Envelope on a cable system will not only protect the contained cable from elevated temperatures associated with a fire, but will impede the heat dissipation associated with cable operation. The evaluation described herein will yield an accurate and realistic value for the ampacity derating of cables when a Fire Protective Envelope is'instaQed on the cable system.
This entire test program was performed in accordance with Texas Utilities Electric TEST PLAN, Rev. 4, which has been included in Appendix B. The specific details of this project will be found in that document.
The ampacity test enclosure was constructed of steel stud walls and ceiling with a muiimum of 1 in. of polystyrene insulation lining the interior of the room. The overaQ dimensions of the test enclosure were 20 ft. x 18 R. x 8 R. An entry door was provided in one wall and an observation window was placed in an adjacent waQ. The waQ with the observation window was made to be removable to facilitate easier location of test articles. Four 1.5 RW heaters were disposed about the room to regulate ambient conditions. Two of the heaters were variable from outside of the test enclosure via connection to standard laboratory variable transformers.
Located directly behind each heater was a 24 in. box fan to gently stir the air and more evenly distribute the heat. A total of nine thermocouples were suspended from the ceiling and positioned in the horizontal plane of the test items, 12 in.
away from various test items to monitor the ambient room temperatures. Two stanchions were erected to support the test articles. Each stanchion consisted of a length of 2 in. square steel tubing supported at several points by an A-frame leg.
A length of 2 in. x 4 in. wood stud was afBxed to,the top surface of each stanchion.
In the case of all but the 5 in. conduit, the test article with the fire protective system installed was tested first. Once the system had attained equilibrium and all final measurements had been taken, the fire protective barrier was removed from the system (in the case of the air drop assemblies and the cable tray

TEGWKOCOUPUH Temperatures on the cable conductors within the conduit and air drop assemblies were measured with Type T, 24 gauge, Copper-Constantan electrically welded thermocouples formed from Copper and Constantan wires of "special limits of error (M.5'C)," and covered with TeQon FEY insulation. Temperatures on the cable conductors within the cable tray assembly were measured with Type K, 24 ga'uge, Chromel-Alumel electrically welded thermocouples formed from Chromel and Alumel wires of "special limits of error (%1.1'C)," and covered with braided fiberglass insulation. All thermocouple wire was calibrated to &.5 C.
DATAACQUISXHON SYSTEM The outputs-of the test article thermocouples and room control thermocouples were monitored by a data acquisition system consisting of a John Fluke Mfg. Co.
Model HELIOS I 2289A Computer Front End, and an Apple Computer Co.
Macintosh Classic microcomputer. The Computer Front End was connected to the RS422 Serial Interface Port of the Macintosh. The computer was programmed in MicrosoR BASIC to command the HELIOS unit to sample the data input lines, receive and convert data into a digital format, and to manipulate the data for display on screen, the hard copy printout, and saving to hard disk. The computer program determined, and displayed, the average temperatures at each of the three positions on each test article. The rate of change of temperature for the average of the thexmocouples located in the center portion of the test article was then calculated. All individual data points and calculated values were saved on hard disk at one minute intervals. A record of individual location temperatures, zmuamum temperatures and rates of change of temperatures was printed at Gve minute intervals. Alltest data is presented in Appendix F: TEST DATA.
CORZROL SYBZESX The current Qow through the test articles was regulated using process control type devices. The available voltage for any test control circuit was 208 Vac single phase. A Silicon Controlled=Rectifier (SCR) device (Ha1mar Robicon Group Model No. 140P-FK2-CL) was used to vary the voltage available to the primary side of a step-down transformer between 0 Vac and 208 Vac in proportion to a 4-20 mA control input. The test article was connected to the secondary side of the step-down transformer. A proportional-integral-derivative process controller (Honeywell Universal Digital ControQer Model No. UDC 3002-0-000-1-00-ZQZ) was responsible for generating the 4-20 mA signal fed to the SCR device, based on a voltage feedback loop.

The output of the current transformer was connected to a current transducer (Flex-Core Model No.
CT5-005A) with a mA to mV converter (Flex-Core Model No. LRB-10000) to produce a 0-10 Vdc signal proportional to a 0-150 A or 0-1000 A current span in the sample conductor. This 0-10 Vdc signal is used as the "process variable" in the feedback loop to the controller. 'In essence, the above circuitry made up a constant-curx'ent device, insensitive to line voltage changes.
The current in any given system was driven to a level high enough to bring the conductor to 90'G as quickly as possible by increasing the'output signal of the process controller via keypad commands. As the conductor temperature approached 90'C, the current level was reduced and the test article was given time to respond to current changes before another adjustment was made to the During this time period, the controller was turned to "automatic" control 'urrent.
and the "process variable set point" (the voltage output from the current transformer that represents the current level at which the controller will maintain the system) was adjusted to the same value as the displayed process variable (the controller varies its output in order the maintain the process variable at the level indicated by the set point).
This process of adjusting the controller output (and the control variable set point) and waiting for the system to stabilize (about 1/2 hour to about 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, depending upon the nature of the system) was continued until the temperature parameters of the test article were within the specified limits. The controller was allowed to operate the system for a minimum of three hours. If, at the end of three hours, the system was still within the bounds of all specifications, a final current and voltage measurement were taken and the system was deemed .to be in equilibrium.
All final current measurements were performed using ammeters supplied and calibrated by Texas Utilities Electric. These ammeter used were manufactured by James Biddle Co. and identified as Biddle Instruments Digital Clamp-On RMS Volt-Aauneter, Cat. No. 278001 (TU Electric ID No. IC-1029 and IC-1030).
Measurements recorded for test items containing 3C/¹10 AWG of 3C/¹6 AWG cable were taken with the ammeter ID No. IC-1030. Current measurements recorded for test items containing 750 kCMil cable were taken with the ammeter ID No. IC-1029. Calibration documentation for these devices can be found in Appendix G: Quality Assurance.

The areas reinforced included butt joints between panels on the bottom surface of the envelope and the longitudinal seams where the top and bottom panels overlap panel pieces installed at the tray side rails.
The butt joints between panels on the bottom surface vrere "stitched" with stainless steel tie wires on 5 in. centers. A thin layer of 330-1 Trowel Grade Material (approximately 3/16 in. thick) was next applied extending 5 in. on each side of the butt joints. Stress shin vras cut and vrrapped circumferentially around the envelope to overlap the butt joints by 5 in. on each side. The stress skin was worked into the trowel grade layer and secured in place with staples and stainless steel tie wire. A shim coat of 330-1 Trowel Grade Material, approximately V16 in.
thick, vras then applied over the stress skin and the tie vrires.
To reinforce the longitudinal seams at the side rails, a 3/16 in. thick layer of 330-1 Trowel Grade Material vras applied over the panels instaQed at the side rails and extending 5 in. tovrards the middle of the tray and both the top and bottom surfaces. Stress skin was cut and formed into a squared, U-shaped con6guration which was placed over the sides and onto the top and bottom surfaces for a 5 in.
distance. The stress shin was worked into the trowel grade layer and secured in place with staples and stainless steel tie vrire. A shim coat of 330-1 Trowel Grade Material, approximately V16 in. thick, vras then applied over the stress skin and tie vrires.
Finally, Thermo-Lag 350 Topcoat was applied over all areas vrhere 330-1 Trovrel Grade Material had been applied foQovring a 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> (minimum) cure time.
Each cable air drop assembly vras clad vrith three complete'-wraps of Thermo-Lag 330-660 Flexi-Blanket Material. An overlap of 2 in. - 4 in. was maintained for each wrap. The overlap area of each wrap vras pre-caulked with Thermo-Lag 330460 Trowel Grade Material and secured with stainless steel bands spaced on 6 in. centers. The overlap areas vrere positioned 180'om one another.
The completed test specimens vrere placed in the Laboratory's test enclosure and the thermocouples connected to the data acquisition system and their outputs veriGed. The tests vrere conducted from March 2, 1993, to March 14, 1993, by Herbert W. Stansberry II, project manager, vrith the foQovring persons present at various times:
