How to calculate rated currennt Of Mcb for 2hp motor...

Answer Posted / shri..

v = 415
hp = 2
PF 0.7
W = 1492

A = (1492)/(415*1.732*0.7)

A = 1044.4 /503.14

A = 2.96 Amps / Phase

Take a MCB c curve type

a)In a 3-phase 4-wire circuit, a circuit breaker is selected to protect the circuit whose highest fault level is 6.6 MVA. Determine the required minimum breaking capacity in kA. (Note: Covert 3-phase power in terms of kA to find answer.) b)Using the below, determine the required minimum making capacity in kA as a “peak value”. Rate breaking capacity (Icn) ka: Icn<= 1.5 Factor = 1.41 1.5
