sir,
how to select the cable size, what is the parameters use
ang what is the formulas use for this cable size
calculations. please tell me.
Answer Posted / rajeshwar paste
Practically there is no formula, but u can refer various
cable supplier booklets in which they specify cable size
against current
Example
Conductor Requirements for ISO 10133 and ISO 13297
This appendix is reproduced from Annex 'A' (normative) of
both ISO 10133 and 13297. Both
ISOs are supporting Standards to the Recreational
Directive. The use of these recommendations
can be used to demonstrate compliance to this Directive.
Current Ratings
Table A1 gives allowable continuous current ratings in
amperes determined for an ambient
temperature of 30°C and the minimum number of strands for
conductors.
Table A1 - Conductor cross-sectional area, allowable
continuous current and stranding.
Maximum Current in amps for a single conductor at
insulation temperature ratings

150 220 380 430 475 520 560 418 2107
NOTE: Conductor current ratings may be interpolated for
cross sectional areas between those shown in Table A1.
* Conductors with at least a Type A stranding shall be used
for general wiring of craft.
Conductors with Type B stranding shall be used for any
wiring where frequent flexing is involved
during use.
For conductors in engine rooms (60c
ambient), the maximum current rating in
tableA1 shall be de-rated by the factors:-
Temperature rating of conductor insulation °C Multiply
maximum current from table A1 by
70 0.75
85 to 90 0.82
105 0.86
125 0.89
200 1.0
BUNDLING (For a.c. only
When more than three a.c. conductors are bundled together
the maximum current ratings in
Table A1 shall be de-rated by the factor below:-
Number of conductors bundled Multiply maximum current from
A1 by
4 to

Assuming that a dedicated neutral earthing transformer is provided for each GT generator, when the two generators are running in parallel, has consideration been given that the earth fault current from one generator stator winding be split between the two neutral earthing transformers? If so, what adverse impact will this have on the operation of the 59N and 27TN devices?
