I realize that online wire calculators have limits, but a rough equivalent to derating the conductor rating to 80% might be comparable to simply increasing my load by 25%?
To then play it a little safer, I suppose I could also the length by 25%. If the wire size then doesnt increase (with second increase), consider it good. If it does then increase, perhaps go with it or further evaluate.
Thanks
