Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / brewed
There are many factors to consider when choosing cable
size .nd I will list just but a few.
1. You need to know the kind of load.
2. you need to know if its undergrond, overhead, in or out
doors
3. You need to know the temperature of your environment.
4. You need to consider the atmospheric pressure
With these and other facors you multiply them, depending on
your installation rules, to get a k factor which will then
depend on rated current carrying capacity of the cable at
hand.

It is normal practice to have a rating for the earthing
system commensurate with the maximum system design fault
level. The normal maximum 400kV fault level is 63kA 1s.
Take the formula from EA TS 41-24 [6]

we have two generators different capacity on 15 MW and other 6MW at 11 KV , 15 MW gen. bus short level current 40KA,and 6MW short level current 25KA,, length of cable 100MTR between 6 MW from 15MW gen. for bus coupling . kindly tell any one can we use both NGR OR one NGR from any GEN. BOTH NGR has diff. rating. Tariq pakistan
