How to calculate cable sizes in sq.mm. with using motor KW?
Any formula there?
Answer Posted / abdool
3pahse power is P(in KiloWatt)=I.V.PF.(root 3).....
I=1.74 x P(KW)
EXAMPLE:
so, assume 3ph 400V 15KW motor, In=1.74x15=26.1 A,
& 15KW=20HP.....so 2xIn=Breaker rating= 52.2A
...choose 63A MCB
Cable size normally 20-25% higher than breaker to avoid
cable heat/burn accident in overcurrent fault. so, 1.25xIn=
62.64A so choose 80A Cable rating of 25mm2.

in a solar power plant,we are going to step up the voltage 350V to 33kv, and to 132kv GSS. i want to ask that if it is possible that 315v/33kv is not possible because we also use 315v/11kv. or it should be 415v/33kv? is it effects generation or losses? the second question is-generation is depends on LV winding? or LV winding design for generation voltage?
