Does anyone know where you can apply the higher ampacities listed in table 2 for 14 / 12 / 10 AWG?

When wiring some AC and Refrigeration compressors you can use the higher values . Only some.

When derating is nessisary, or when a code rule requires you to calculate the required wire size for a given situation.

Off hand, that's motors, capacitors, heat, welders and transformers.
