While other answers are general procedures for selection of
cable, underground cable laying is different, AFTER having
taken the above factors into consideration.
The laying of underground cable should also consider the
permissible conductor temperatures, ambient temperature,
number of cores and mode of laying (single cores or
multicores), etc. The maximum current carrying capacity
also varies with the type of cables and its insulation
properties.
Cable laying is also of several types. In case of single
core cables, they could either be close together or
seperated by one diameter of the cable. That could also
cause differences in current carrying capacities.
In general, for a loaded 5 core cable when laid in ground,
the derating factor could be 0.7 times the rated current
carrying capacity of the cable.

generally in LT and MV motors we are using 3.5Coresx16,25,35,50 etc cable for supply.although motors is earthed at two point and having all protection.then why we are using that 1/2 core for earthing the motors.while in HT cable we are using only 3core cable for motor supply.generally lt and mv motors are delta connected and ht motors having star connection.whethere it is having any relation with winding connection( star or delta).all motors i am talking about are dol only.can anybody solve my confusion.thanks...
WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR CALCULATING CURRENT RATING(DIRECT IN GROUND OR AIR) OF ARMOURED(XLPE) CABLE OF 4C,16Sqmm?
I have a current transformer with 1 main reading meter with transformer outside the building and a control panel having 5 CT reading meters with black round coils inside the building. I want to know, A) when current pass through the Transformers, will the current be reduced or be the same and after that B) when current pass through the CT meters with black round coils, will the current be reduced or be the same. C) in the above process will the reading of the main meter be same or different, from the total reading of all the 5 CT meters.
