• decode_cable_code

  Decode a cable type designation (DIN VDE, HAR, BS/IEC, NEC, TS, UTE, CEI-UNEL and 59 more of its 66 coding systems, plus LAN and fibre) into its layers: conductor, insulation, screen, armour, sheath, with the source behind each symbol. Deterministic, no LLM.

• design_cable

  Design and size a cable (power, control, LAN, coaxial, fibre) from a sentence (Turkish or English, e.g. "3-core collective screen 12/20 kV 3x95/25 Al, longitudinally watertight") or a spec: every layer's thickness with its source (IEC 60502, HD 603 / 620, BS, EN 50525, NEC / UL…

• find_equivalents

  Find the equivalents of a power cable in other countries' standards ("the Dutch equivalent of this Swedish cable"): the decoded cable is rebuilt under each target rule set (IEC 60502, HD 603, HD 620 sections J/M/D/C/K, BS 5467/6724/7846/6622, EN 50618, HD 627) with the same…

• check_cable

  Check a power cable against a standard's nominal rules: a designation with size and voltage, a designer design, or the construction a maker's datasheet or tender offer states (layers with nominal and minimum thicknesses, screen and armour data). Rule sets: IEC 60502-1 / -2, IEC…

• extract_datasheet

  Read a power cable datasheet (a maker PDF, an https link to one, or pasted datasheet or tender text) into constructions: every cable size it states with voltage, cores, conductor, each layer with its nominal and smallest thickness, screen and armour data, diameters and the…

• write_specification

  Write the cable specification for a tender: one cable, or a project of up to 30 cables, each as design_cable takes it (a sentence, a bare designation, a spec or a design), plus the project's requirements (rodent, termite, UV, cold, oil, watertightness, fire, armour and more…

• design_presets

  The cable designer's presets (power, MV, HV, North American, building wire, cords, control, LAN, coaxial, fibre), each with the sentence that builds it in design_cable and its designation, and the standards a design_cable spec may name with their voltages, core counts and…

• drum_fit

  Which cable drum (reel) a length of cable needs, or how much one drum takes: whole layers and whole turns on a wound diameter of 1.05 x OD with a freeboard under the flange rim, an estimate within a few per cent of cable makers' own capacity tables (most online tools overstate…
