HOW TO FIND OUT 1. LINE CURRENT, 2. PHASE CURRENT IN AN
ALTERNATOR / TRANSFORMER WHICH IS FEEDING A I)STAR LOAD ii)
DELTA LOAD, USING A CLAMP METER.
NORMALLY WHEN WE USE CLAMP METER IN A DG SET THEN WHAT DO
WE GET?? PHASE CURRENT OR LINE CURRENT.
Answer Posted / vivek
I WOULD LIKE TO CLARIFY THE DOUBTS OF MR ANANDHARAJ'S
COMMENTS IN ANSWER 8.. HE FAILED TO UNDERSTAND THE BASICS
OF ELECTRICITY THAT CURRENT ALWAYS FLOW IN A CLOSED LOOP SO
THERE IS NO QUESTION OF OPENING THE LOOP ...AND MOREOVER
WHEN USING CLAMP METER, YOU DONT NEED TO OPEN A CIRCUIT...
SO WHAT I MEANT BY "OPENING" IN ANSWER NO 2 WAS OPENING THE
ENCLOSURE OF THE SOURCE OR THE LOAD IN ORDER TO ACCESS THE
JUNCTION... I HOPE NOW MR ANANDHARAJ WOULD BE IN A BETTER
POSITION TO APPLY HIS RICH EXPERIENCE AND GUIDE A NOVICE
LIKE ME TO GAIN SOME PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE.. THANKS FOR YOUR
INTEREST.

How earthing/grounding done in aeroplanes and ships.
We have drive feeding an output contactor for a 5000 hp motor @ 5kV application. The motor FLA is 629amps x 1.25% service factor = 786.25 amps The cable that we current have in place between the drive and the output contactor is 350kcmil- MV-105 (parallel cables). Per the NEC table 310.60 (C) (69). This show the cable ampacity is at 615 amps per cable for a rating of 1230 amps. We have derated the cable for the cable tray and the multiple cables application and our calculations show that after the correction factor factor we are at 922amps. 1230 amps x .75% correction factor factor = 922.5 amps. The customer is driving us to then use another safety factor of .25% off of the already derated cable. Can you please provide a longhand calculation for your solution on this application?
