what is the formula of knowing the clabe size on any load?

Answer Posted / guest

To find the cable size:
1.Decide the load ratings ie., voltage, FL current of the
load.
2.So that P = V*I*PF
3.Now apply ohms law, V=IR.
4.Now we have the resistance, as per the resistance we can
choose the cable. R= (permeability*Length)/Area of C.S

i have a 4 Mva transformer 34.5 kv / 480-277 v and i used 2 parallel 3200 amp bus duct for the secondary feeder using 3 ply of bus bar ( 3/8" x 5" ) as a common where the flexible link terminated and 6300 amps breaker for the main, the lower bus duct reaches 70 degrees and the upper bus duct reaches 55 degrees when i used thermal scanner. why the temperature is not balance when the load reaches 3600 amps.
