Abstract: In the paper, the dependence of the current characteristics of self-regulating heating cables on the environmental conditions is investigated. A method is proposed to determine the allowable length of a heating section depending on the environmental conditions and parameters of automatic circuit breaker used.

Keywords: Self-regulating cables, current characteristics, temperature
