how to calculate the size of cable for 100 kva load,?can
somebody tell me with a formula
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Considering Powe factor 0.8
Kw = KVA*.08
KW = 100*0.8
= 80 KW
w = 1.73 * 415 * Il * 0.8
80000 = 1.73 * 415 * I1 * 0.8
I = 80000/ 1.73*415*0.8
= 139 Amp
You can choose the cable which current carring capacity per
phase is on or above 140 Amp
By considering the future expansion of load the 180 Sq.mm
AYFY cable is ideal.

KVA=uder root3*V*A/1000
A=Under root 3*415*KVA/1000

Answer / abdulsubur
WE CAN GET FROM THIS REALTION
KVA=KW/KVAR
100*85=85KW
THEN FIND CURRNET FROM P=ROOT 3 VICOSPHI FORMULA THEN FIND
CURRENT AND THEN LENTH FROM THE MV=VD*1000/L*I

Answer / brijesh shakya
Before calculating size of cable, phase & voltage should be
clear then after we can calculate the current of load by
this formula
P=root3*V*I
I=P/(root3*V)
Accodingle we can select the size of cale.

Answer / jack
Depends on what voltage you working with.
P = V*I
You got P and V, find what your I is.
Then use a cable selection book from, eg. Olex, choose your
cable from there.

Answer / jiwanjot
i think something is wrong with question ...load can never
be in KVA it should in kw if we talk about motor.....
Is This Answer Correct ? | 5 Yes | 15 No |
Answer / mehul g. c.
if your load is single phase then you should use 3.5c x 185
sq.mm alu. Armoured cable.

Why HT motors are connected in star.
How we can design a cable for a 3phase load.
when we catch any one of the phases with our both hands in air(without touching ground),our body acts as a conductor.is it correct.please clarrify it.
reason of capacitor failure or low voltage in alternator wtih 10kva dgset
Refernce currents are to be generated using refernce cueernts how can this be done??
technically, what is the reason behind starting the motor star the delta connection .. and what other ways to do this rather than using " star-delta transformer"
when we supply in primary side of transformer then the supply goes in secondary side?how it works?
Why restricted earth fault protection is needed? Why can’t differential Protection is sufficient?
if 50hz transformer is required to be run on 50% frequency what needs to be done???????????
do we people experience any shock if we catch any one of the three phases (R Y B)in air with out touching ground.
Which test will be more severe for VCB?
