600v Wire tension
600v Wire tension
(OP)
I have a switchgear lineup on a concrete pad that is on piers, and runs 100' to the building with 4 sets of 500 kcmil. The switchgear is moving. How could I determine how much it can move before something dramatic happens?
100' seems like it could take some movement

This can be compared to the maximum allowable tension for the given wire type or support messenger. In addition, you can add snow/ice loading and wind loading (if applicable).
