HOW TO CALCULATE THE CABLE SIZE FOR POWER CABLE, CONTROL
CABLE AND INSTRUMENT CABLE

Answer Posted / guest

In order to be able to calculate the cable size of a power
cable one should know
1)how much load it has to carry.
2)how far or the distance
3)what is the voltage
4)what type of conductor to be used.
5)have the cable manufacturers catalogue
deciding on the type of conductor example aluminum or
copper, armoured ,surface mounted or under ground and
knowing the expected load the voltage drop is calculated and
the most suitable cable size is selected which falls within
the local regulations.
Same goes for the other cables also taking into
consideration all other factors.

When we use air circuit breaker, it has O/L protection ,time delay SC protection, Instataneous SC protection & ground fault protection. They all have some setting range. But what is the suitable/allowable setting for the above protection which will be safe for the equipment? For example-O/L protection setting have a range of (0.4,0.45,0.5,0.55,0.6,0.65,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0)xIn Time delay SC protection have a range of (1.25,1.5,2,3,4,6,8,10,12)xIn Time delay setting is 0.02,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 Instataneous setting is fixed to 20xIn Gound fault setting is given 100A,300A,600A,900A,1200A This setting are for 2500A ACB. So what will be the basic allowable setting for the above protection? is there any formulae to calculate this<
