The 2008 Amendment (IEC 60949:1988/AMD1:2008) addressed components connected in parallel (e.g., screen, sheath, and armor combined). It clarified that if multiple components share the fault current, the current divides inversely according to their respective resistances. Conclusion

The primary work of the standard involves calculating the maximum permissible current ($I_AD$) or the maximum permissible duration ($t$).
Multiply them to find the final ( Core Calculation Formulas
💡 : Most engineers use specialized software (like ETAP or CYME) for these calculations, but a manual check using the Cable Sizing Guide is vital for verifying results.
IEC 60949, titled outlines the methodology for determining the maximum short-circuit current a cable can withstand without experiencing damage to its insulation or conductor.
