NOTE: Total raceway wire capacity, in any configuration, can not exceed
capacity specified in C. Two A compartments can not exceed the
capacity specified for compartment B.
20% cable fill is calculated to approximate reduction in cable
capacity due to connectors mounted within raceway and fittings
that may restrict cross sectional area.
40% cable fill is the maximum designed cable fill based on a
proposed revision to TIA/EIA 569-A.
