How to calculate cable sizes in sq.mm. with using motor KW?
Any formula there?
Answer Posted / sagir siddiqui
First of all you need to verified full load current of motor,
How can you calculate:
Ex: 1 Motor - 20HP 3ph. 415V 50Hz, 80% efficiency
Cal: A= HPx746/(sqrt3xVoltxPFxefficiency)
=20x746/1.732x415x0.8x0.8
=32.43Amp.
We all know that a motor has 1.5 times starting current,
Then 32.43x1.5 = 48.65Amp
Now you can see in the current currying capacity of cable from manufacturer cable's list.
3.5 x 35 sqmm xlpe cable is sufficient for full load.

Dear Sir/Madam, I have one questions we have three steam turbines and one Gas turbine and our industry linked with the public network, we have protection system one of the protection is reverse power we can export just four MW only i would like to ask about how to calculate the reverse power. Thank you in advance best regards
can we make a electric generator,which can not use any type of fuel,air,solar,gas,thermal,coal,petrol,etc and able to produce electrical energy (or self electricity generating generator)
