The standard describes a numerical method by which the core and surface temperatures of a bare stranded overhead conductor are related to the steady or time-varying electrical current and weather conditions. The method may also be used to determine the conductor current that corresponds to conductor temperature limits. The standard does not recommend suitable weather conditions or conductor parameters for use in line rating calculations.
