	In [[electrical engineering]], '''Neher–McGrath''' is a paper describing a method of estimating the steady-state temperature of electrical [[power cable]]s for some commonly encountered configurations. By estimating the temperature of the cables, the safe long-term current-carrying capacity of the cables can be set. The paper described two-dimensional highly symmetric simplified calculations which have formed the basis for many cable application guidelines and regulations. Complex geometries, or configurations that require three-dimensional analysis of ~~heat flow, require more complex tools such as [[finite element analysis]].~~		The title of the author is Jayson.

	~~J. H. Neher and M. H. McGrath were two electrical engineers who wrote a paper about how to calculate~~ the ~~capacity of current (ampacity) of cables~~. ~~Their article~~ is ~~so useful that it is used as reference for the ampacity in most of the standard tables.~~

	The Neher–McGrath paper summarized years of research into analytical treatment of the practical problem of heat transfer from power cables. The methods described included all the heat generation mechanisms from a power cable (conductor loss, dielectric loss and shield loss).<ref>George J.

	~~From the basic principles that [[electric current]] leads to thermal heating and thermal power transfer to the ambient environment requires~~ some temperature difference, it follows that the current leads to a temperature rise in the conductors. The [[ampacity]], or maximum allowable current, of an [[Cable\|electric power cable]] depends on the allowable temperatures of the cable and any adjacent materials such as [[Insulator (electrical)\|insulation]] or [[Electrical_termination#Other_meaning\|termination]] equipment. For insulated cables, the insulation maximum temperature is normally the limiting material property that constrains ampacity. For uninsulated cables (typically used in overhead installation), the tensile strength of the cable (as affected by ~~temperature) is normally the limiting material property~~. ~~The Neher–McGrath method is the electrical industry standard for calculating cable ampacity, most often employed via lookup~~ in ~~tables of precomputed results for common configurations~~.

	~~==US National Electrical Code use==~~
	The equation in section 310-15(C) of the [[National Electrical Code]], called the Neher–McGrath equation (given below), may be used to estimate the effective ampacity of a cable. In the Neher–McGrath (NM) equation, TC is ~~normally the limiting conductor temperature derived~~ from ~~the insulation or tensile strength limitations~~. <~~math~~>~~{\Delta}TD~~<~~/math~~> is a term added to the ambient temperature, TA, to compensate for heat generated in the jacket and insulation for higher voltages. <math>{\Delta}TD</math> is called the dielectric loss temperature rise and is generally regarded as insignificant for voltages below 2000 V. Another term in the Neher–McGrath equation, (1+YC), is a multiplier used to convert [[direct current]] resistance (RDC) to the effective alternating current resistance (which typically includes [[Skin effect\|conductor skin effects]] and [[eddy current]] losses). For wire sizes smaller than [[American wire gauge\|AWG]] No. 2, this term is generally regarded as insignificant. RCA is the effective thermal resistance between the conductor and the ambient conditions, which can require significant empirical or theoretical effort to estimate. With respect to the AC-sensitive terms, tabular presentation of the NM equation results in the National Electrical Code was developed assuming the standard North American power frequency of 60 hertz and sinusoidal wave forms for current and voltage.

	~~<math>I = \sqrt{TC-(TA+{\Delta}TD) \over RDC~~(~~1+YC)RCA}</math>~~

	The challenges posed by the complexity of estimating RCA and of estimating the local increase in ambient temperature obtained by co-locating many cables (in a [[Electrical_conduit#Underground_conduit\|duct bank]]) create a [[Niche market\|market niche]] in the electric power industry for software dedicated to ampacity estimation.
