Cable size (sq.mm.) is selected dpendent on 4 facors

1. Current carrying capacity (popularly termed Amapcity)
of the cable.
2. Voltage drop that can be tolerated at the load point.
3. Short circuit tolerance of the cable.
4. Mechanical strength of the cable.

A cable is selected fo the job that can meet all these
criteria.

Basically HT and LT cables are of same material but the
difference is in insulation.

Looks too much like a text book lesson. If you can post
your exact requirement, I would try to help.

How to find Cable size? Caterpillar generator produce (Two generators) 127*2=254 amp at 11 kv . What would be the cable size (XLPE) to supply 256 amp at 11 kv? Air or surrounding Temperature is 32 degree C. Cable will go under ground at 2.5 feet depth. Group Rating Factors is 3 cables. Clearance between cables is 7 cm. Soil Temperature (Ambient) 28o C Soil Thermal Resistivity is 1.2 K.m/W I would like to use 3 separate single core instead of using 3 core cable. Some says I should use three separate single core 120RM cables. Some says 70RM .some says 95. I m totally confused. Is there ant specific rule to determine cable size? What would be the LT cable size to flow 500 Amp current? Ifte My e mail address is ifte13@yahoo.com Anyone please send me the answer to my e mail address, i will be very glad.
