TELL WHY ITS HEAT-UP?(CABLE LENGTH IS 15 METERS ONLY)

Answer Posted / manohar

If motor is connected in Y/D connection, then the cable size
is used OK, Check the both motor & panel side terminal
connection is loose . After this if you found cable heating
then check the voltage,current& POWER FACTOR. If necessary
put 25KVAR Capacitor Bank at motor side.
