See , the formula for derated current is nothing bu derated
factor .
Mostly derated factor depends upon the following points.

Way of cable laying i.e. on cable trays / duct / pipe etc(
open to air or into the Hume pipe or under ground )

Cable laying by grouping & having distance between two
cable as per individual manufacturer recommandation .

Each manufacture gives the deration factor for the above
stated point.

Deration means your cable carry the less current below your
rated capacity due the above reason.

take example.

suppose
1.5 sq.mm. cu carrying the current around 12 amp.in open to
air at 25 deg.c ref. temp. as per cable manufacturer

after considering the above stated point

if suppose my deration factor would be around 0.6
then deration current of above cable would be - 12 *
0.6=7.2amp
it means that your cable carry the less cuurent do the way
of laying , temp. cable grouping etc.

i hope above inf. sufficient for understanding

thanks

I am new guy as an electrical engr. in a 100MW HFO based power project. I am in operations division. I have noticed from last few days, my supervisor sends the last 24 hours energy generation calculation to my plant manager. I have noticed, he calculated last 24 hour's generated energy differences in KWH then he multiplied it with a multiplying factor 960. for example: total difference =2.685 KWH*960= 2577.6 MWH. but he does not not know what is multiplying factor 960?? can anybody explain it??

I have a 1000 kVA Transformer(11kV/0.415kV) and a APFC panel of 400 kVAR(LT).Now if i want to remove the LT APFC panel and install a HT(11kV) APFC panel on the HT side is the HT APFC panel will work same as the LT APFC panel(improve the power factor),if yes what will be rating of the HT APFC panel?what is the formula to calculate HT APFC panel rating???
