A motor works on 30kw.it is working on 440volts.How much amper will be Required?..

Answer / a.bala

Hai Ramya
The formula for I= KW/ 1.732x pf x Applied voltage in kv
So
KW =30
pf=0.8
Applied voltage = 440 v =440/1000=.440
30/ 1.732x0.8x.440=49.2 A

Answer / dinesh raj

Voltage =440 V
Power Facter (cos@) = 0.8
Power P = 30kW = 30000W
Formula for 3phase power P = sqr(3)*V*I*cos@
So Current I = P/sqr(3)*V*cos@

I = 30000/1.732*440*0.8
So Required amper = 49.2 A

A motor works on 30kw.it is working on 440volts.How much amper will be Required?..

Answer / a.bala

30 / Rt3xpfx voltage i KV
30/Rt3 x.8x.440= 49.2 A
Consider starter current 1.2 Time from running current
so 49.2 * 1.2= 59 A
sO you will selecte cable and breaker for 60 A.

Answer / ramendra shukla

Hi Dinesh you are correct but you have made a mistake- in
place of sqr(3) there will be root squre(3)

so Power,P = under root(3) VI Cos@

or P = 1.732 VI cos@

then you are correct while your calculation are correct.

Grounding. Dear all at one of my site we checked the amps at the earthing cable to the alternator it was found 125 to 130 A. at the neutal cable in same machine found 146A. in the same plant checked the earthing current on other alternator it was 52A, and neutral 116 A. we are facing problems with our controller and the card was damaged once. can that neutral/GND current be a reason? as there is common grounding for the Alternator,Brkr panel,Transformer?
