What is the difference between earthed & unearthed system?
Answer Posted / meenakshi
By Earthed system, we mean a three phase system whose star
point is grounded directly. In this case, in the event of
the earth fault, the voltage in the faulty phase will
become zero. The voltage between the healthy phases and the
ground will be the same, 11kV/1.732 or 6.6/1.732.
However, in case of an earth fault in an ungrounded system,
the voltage between the healthy phases and the ground will
be equal to the phase to phase voltage. i.e. 11kV or 6.6 kV.

We have drive feeding an output contactor for a 5000 hp motor @ 5kV application. The motor FLA is 629amps x 1.25% service factor = 786.25 amps The cable that we current have in place between the drive and the output contactor is 350kcmil- MV-105 (parallel cables). Per the NEC table 310.60 (C) (69). This show the cable ampacity is at 615 amps per cable for a rating of 1230 amps. We have derated the cable for the cable tray and the multiple cables application and our calculations show that after the correction factor factor we are at 922amps. 1230 amps x .75% correction factor factor = 922.5 amps. The customer is driving us to then use another safety factor of .25% off of the already derated cable. Can you please provide a longhand calculation for your solution on this application?
