Default direct burial cable allowable ampacity

Hi Kids,

I have a piece of 4/0 AWG USEB direct burial electrical cable and need
to know the allowable ampacity for it under NEC trade practices.

Can someone look that up for me, I dont have a copy of the NEC.


Cheers... Silverman

Default direct burial cable allowable ampacity

Is it copper or aluminum? Is it used for a residential service or a feeder?
