how to select short circuit current while selecting a MCCB?
how to calculate current for a given KVA and KW load?

Answer Posted / prashant

The basic equation is

P= 1.732VICos(A) WHERE P = load in KW

If in KVA then convert it to KW

KW = KVA * Cos(A)

V=415

well i dnt knw regarding the short ckt selection of MCCB
