Answer / deepak prabhu
5 Hp motor usually comes in 3 ph only.and DOL starter of 3 phase is also available. Cable size doesn't depends on KVA of generators. In 3ph, 5Hp=3.7KW. =11A. By cosidering factor of safety we can use 4.0 sq mm copper cable.

Answer / mohammad farman khan-abu dhabi
5HP Motor are use as single phase on D.O.L or Star/Delta
connection as 3 phase. If you use single phase then total
load is 3.7kw so we can use 6mm sq cable .if you use in y/D
connection the required to use 4cx6 sq mm cable.

Electricty is generated at around 16kV, then step up to 220kV for transmission then steped down to power transformers then DTs and then through the LT n/w it reaches the consumer end. At the consumer end 230V supply is required. So, why is electricity not generated directly at 230V and transmitted?
Consider a case that two 200 hp motors are connected to 500KVA transformer. For improving power factor can we add capacitors in common bus bars to motors. Or should we add capacitors for each individual motor?
