Answer / sree
presuming, the unit of load is in HP(It is out put power)
output in KW= 735.5xHP(A).
Input in KW= A/Effy.(B).
Current= B/((1.732 * V * 0.7) (for 3 Phase star connected
load)(C)
Starting current= (1.5 to 2 times of full load current
(approx.)(D)
Based on cable catalague the size of cable will be chosen
as per above current rating(D).

Answer / vinay
Depending on amps rating.
A=P/V (for 1phase. P=Power in W, V=Voltage)
A=P/(1.732 * V * 0.7) (for 3 Phase)

what is the diference between the 4pole & 6pole DC Motors & what is advantage 6pole over the 4pole ?
how we can calculate chiller required ampear?
whenever any squirrel or a crow falls on the transformer input line then there is a big explosion and 440 volts of power is being discharged through the neutral line due to which appliances in off mode are also burned.we have earthing for the transformer as well as the bus bar chamber.why is it happening?
suppose a fan is running with phase and neutral. if its neural is touched to body. then fan get stopped. if this fan is connected to phase and ground supply..then why it runs?
Will a bulb glow if we connect it between the phase and earth instead of earthed neutral?
what are the disadvantages of low power factor
what is use of substation? Any book on how to instal or construction of substations?
why DG rating in kva
what is specific gravity of a battery if specific gravity increase/decrease,what will happen to the voltage/current of the battery
what is mean by descripiency relay? & wht is its ansi code?
What is the formula for calculating Transformer Losses & Efficiency. I want to compare the Transformer efficiency at different loading condition.
