how to measure the voltage drop in cables also give
formulas to calculate.

Answer Posted / ajay daultani

Voltage drop ( % ) =1.732*I * L* (( R *(cosfie) + X*sin
(fie ))* 100 /( n*v*1000)


where I is load current
L is length of cable
R - resistance
X - reactance
fie is angle calculated by tan^-1 ( R/Z )
n is number of runs
v is voltage
