I want formula to calculate cable size as per load given in
kw & amp.I searched many sites but didn't right answer.Plz
reply me asap.

Answer Posted / anupam mathur

Cable size depends on 1)Voltage Drop, 2)Distance, and 3)Load
So u have to calculate first the permissible voltage drop.
For lighting circuit permissible voltage drop:
2% of the rated voltage + 1 volt
2 X 230 /100 +1 = 460/100 + 1 volt = 5.6V

For motoring load
5% of the rated voltage

5 X 415/100 = 20.75 V

Now the formula for calculating voltage drop:

Voltage Drop = I X D (r X 0.85 + Xc X 0.53)/No. of runs X 1000
I : Current
D : Distance
r : Resistance
Xc : Capacitive reactance

If the voltage drop comes within the limits then ur cable
selection is ok.

Is there ant booklet through which we can learn the circuit diagrams? 2)I want to learn about conduiting, laying cables, preparing cable schedules and various techniques which is the part of building infrastucture(construction field). I don't have any experience in this area. I have experience in control panels only. that's why i am not getting any opening in building infrastucture (construction field).Can I get the job in this field as Trainee Engineer?
