How to select the cable size for the given load ?Pls explain the Formulae..

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)
