Answer / sree
presuming, the unit of load is in HP(It is out put power)
output in KW= 735.5xHP(A).
Input in KW= A/Effy.(B).
Current= B/((1.732 * V * 0.7) (for 3 Phase star connected
load)(C)
Starting current= (1.5 to 2 times of full load current
(approx.)(D)
Based on cable catalague the size of cable will be chosen
as per above current rating(D).

Answer / vinay
Depending on amps rating.
A=P/V (for 1phase. P=Power in W, V=Voltage)
A=P/(1.732 * V * 0.7) (for 3 Phase)

Dear Mannu/ Vinay
Efficiency has to be considered for the system also.

what is the exact direction of current? as we know current travels from higher potential to lower potential,so if we take battery +ve to -ve implies current direction is from positive terminal to negative terminal.,whereas electrons flow from negative to positive as they are attracted by positive ions.current will be the plow of charge but not flow of positive ions.please clarify my doubt friends.

I am designing new project sub station with 220 kV / 11 kV, 40 MVA capacity. This project have many recifier sets, which can generate 3rd harmonics. Now I have to select vector group of This transformer. To minimise 3rd harmonics, what care should I take in selection of Transformer Vecrtor group? If it is Y-Y with open Delta tertiary then what should be the rating & voltage of Tertiary Winding?
