Answer / bala.a

Hai
its is very simple
load=10 HP
10 X 0.746= 7.46 KW

7.46 X 1000/ ROOT 3 X 0.8X 415= 12.97 A= 13 A

So our require cable shouls be withstand 13 A AT full load
condition .

u will reff any one cable manufacture catalouge which
cable suitable for the same load . but that cable to be
suitable for Appx -18A because u will consider the
derating factor for cable .

Answer / santosh

Sqmm of cable depends upon the cable material.In thumb rule Cu cable can carry 10-12 times of its rated sqmm.For ex 10 sqmm cu cable carry 100-120 amps.Al cable carry 4 times current of its rated sqmm

For ur problem: 13A is rated current. 50-60 amp staring current,7-8 running cu.So u may need 4 sqmm Al cable or 2.5 sqmm cu cable.

Answer / anil

Sir, it is simple 10kw motor will take 14 amp current in
normal running of motor but at starting shall take about 5-7
times more in case of induction motor. so we will consider
the cable accordingly

Answer / charan

fine buddy, what i want is how the manufactures is deciding
that Sqmm of the cable ??

At 765Kv, I have seen the use of PT at line side for metering and CVT for protection, although as far as my knowledge is concern, PT at this voltage level will have huge loss and more cost as compared to CVT as CVT can also perform same function of Protection and Metering? So my question is why use PT and not CVT for metering and protection in order to reduce the cost.
