decode_cable_codeDecode a cable type designation (DIN VDE, HAR, BS/IEC, NEC, TS, UTE, CEI-UNEL and 64 more of its 71 coding systems, plus LAN and fibre) into its layers: conductor, insulation, screen, armour, sheath, with the source behind each symbol. Deterministic, no LLM.
design_cableDesign and size a cable (power, control, LAN, coaxial, fibre) from a sentence (any site language, e.g. "3-core collective screen 12/20 kV 3x95/25 Al, longitudinally watertight") or a spec: every layer's thickness with its source (IEC 60502, HD 603 / 620, BS, EN 50525, NEC / UL a…

overhead_conductorLook up a bare overhead line conductor (AAC, AAAC, ACSR, ACSR/AW: aluminium or alloy wires, with or without a zinc coated or aluminium-clad steel core): send its code, e.g. "242-AL1/39-ST1A" (EN 50182:2001 4.5) or an ACSS code "401-AL0/28-MEHST" (FprEN 50540 clause 4), or an EN…
check_cableCheck a power cable against a standard's nominal rules: a designation with size and voltage, a designer design, or the construction a maker's datasheet or tender offer states (layers with nominal and minimum thicknesses, screen and armour data). Rule sets: the 85 that the standa…
extract_datasheetRead a power cable datasheet (a maker PDF, an https link to one, or pasted datasheet or tender text) into constructions: every cable size it states with voltage, cores, conductor, each layer with its nominal and smallest thickness, screen and armour data, diameters and the claim…
read_tenderRead a project or tender document (a purchase or project specification, a tender volume, a GTP / data schedule; a PDF of up to 80 pages and 20 MB, or its text) and answer what it asks for: every cable it lists built as a design by the designer's rules and checked against its rul…
write_specificationWrite the cable specification for a tender: one cable, or a project of up to 30 cables, each as design_cable takes it (a sentence, a bare designation, a spec or a design), plus the project's requirements (rodent, termite, UV, cold, oil, watertightness, fire, armour and more, eac…
design_presetsList what the cable designer builds, before calling design_cable: presets[] (power, MV, HV, North American, building wire, cords, control, LAN, coaxial, fibre), each with its id, standard, the sentence that builds it in design_cable, its designation (name), voltage, cores, secti…
drum_fitWhich cable drum (reel) a length of cable needs, or how much one drum takes: whole layers and whole turns wound nested (each turn in the groove of the layer below, layers rising 0.866 dc) on a wound diameter of 1.05 x OD with a freeboard under the flange rim; cable makers' own c…
burial_depthThe minimum burial cover for a power cable by country, voltage and location (open ground, road, pavement; direct or in a raceway for the US and Australia), from the rule the site holds for that country (national rules, HD 603 / HD 620 parts, NEC 2026 Tables 300.7(A) and 305.15(A…
fire_classThe lowest fire class or listing a country asks for in a kind of building or space (escape route, general area, high-rise, tunnel, hospital, data centre, plenum, riser, railway) for DE, ES, FR, GB, IT, TR and US: the rule lines with their sources and seen levels, makers' declara…
awg_metricAWG / kcmil against IEC 60228 mm², both ways, by area and by maximum resistance at 20 °C (4/0 AWG is not 95 mm²), each size with its resistance and source (NEC Chapter 9 Table 8, UL 1581 Table 30.3, IEC 60228:2023 Table 4, 0.5 to 3500 mm²); with k, the ICEA insulation constant K…
conduit_fillNEC Chapter 9 conduit fill: the smallest trade size of a raceway type (EMT, IMC, RMC, PVC, ENT, FMC, LFNC, LFMC, HDPE ...) that holds a list of conductors or cables, their areas from Tables 5, 5A and 8 (or a cable by its diameter) against Table 1's 53 / 31 / 40 % (60 % for a nip…
pull_cableThe designer's pull calculation on a route of straights and bends (a conduit or rollers): the tension out of each segment pulled from either end, the sidewall bearing pressure at each bend, the jam ratio, clearance and fill, against the allowable tension and pressure with their…
tray_fillThe NEC cable tray fill (392.22, Tables 392.22(A)(1), (A)(5), (A)(6), (B)(1)) and the ampacity of each cable in the tray (392.80), for 2000 V and below and Type MV: the fill against the allowable area or width, pass or fail, and each cable's derated ampacity with its table. For…
drum_loadingThe drum page's loading planner: how many vehicles of a type (box trailer, curtain-sider, open top, flat rack, containers, platform, rigid truck, or a custom box in full mode) a number of drums needs, by space and by payload, the rows and positions, chocks and bedding, the secur…
cold_weather_checkThe Pro cold-weather check: the long-term mean daily minimum and mean temperature of a place in a month (NASA POWER monthly data of the place's grid cell, GeoNames places, a stored table: no outside call) against the design's minimum laying temperature with its source, and a ver…
mv_electricalThe Pro electrical values of a medium or high voltage design: capacitance, charging current, inductive reactance in trefoil and flat, a.c. resistance with the skin and proximity effects (IEC 60287-1-1), dielectric loss and the impulse levels (IEC 60502-2), every value with its s…
economic_sizeThe Pro economic size (the IEC 60287-3-2 method): the energy lost a year in this size and one and two sizes up, its present cost over the years, and the discounted payback of the larger size where its extra cost is given, each step with its formula and source. Always paid: the s…
