formula for cable size calculation for current?

Answer Posted / gurunadharaov

by the formula p=v*i*cos@
assume the load as 5kw and operating at 230v and also
assume the load as inductive (so the power factor is 0.5
pf lag)


now by formula
5000=230*i*0.5
i=50A
NOW CABLE SIZE MUST BE > LOAD
SO CABLE SIZE IZ 65SQMM(ITZ DSSEPEND ON AL/CU CABLE)

Is This Answer Correct ?    118 Yes 136 No

What is the need of earthing transformer for delta side of a transformer. (Think of a line section between a star/delta transformer at a grid substation and delta/star transformer at a village. An earthing transformer is there at the delta side of the star/delta transformer at grid substation). As there are no ground reference there will not be fault current if a one phase is grounded. Further L-L phase will be sensed by the primary side of star/delta transformer as a L-G fault. So why an earthing transformer is required at delta side
