how to calculate cable size, olr rating, contactor rating
and mccb rating,to below given details three phase motor
75 kw,415 v,.85 pf,50 hz?
Answer Posted / brakadeesh
motor rating 75kw,so it taken full load p=1.732*v*I*cosfy
i= p/1.732*v*cosfy
=123 amp. so we requared a cable to carry 123 amp
contonious rating. so require to run motor in star delta
starter . in star delta connection load current is 58% of
line current. we require 58% of 123 amp carring capasity
cable.it is around 71 amp.generly copper cable taking 4
times current of cable rating and alluminium cable taken
1.5 times of cable ratting .so for 71 amp carring alu.
cable 50mm2 suffisent but due to high starting curent its
take 70 mm2 cable ib best.
its overload relay ratting is in range to 71 amp. it to be
60-80 amp,and mccb rating is 2.5 times of full load =200
amp
is best.

following are the questions asked in interviews: 1) Considering the short circuit fault, which switchgear is preferable, SFU OR MCCB? Which operates faster? whicg one is popular in Indian Market and why? 2)Define SCPD. What is type2 coodination? 3)Why the contactor rating is higher for the fuseless selection than for fuse selection? whether the ratinf of SFU or MCCB remains the same in both the cases? 4)If the HP rating is known then can you calculate the ratings of L.V Switchgear(SFU/MCCB, contactor, OLR) without using the selection chart?

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<
