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 / bala

Hai
First u will convert the KW OR kvA loads to AMph
After u can select the suitable cable from cable manufuture
catalouge . that u will consider derating factor = 0.72
For Example
50 A
16 SQ XLPE Al cable may be suitable
The 16 sqmm cable suitable for 70A ( DATA TAKEN FROM
HAVEELS CATALOUGE)
70 * 0.72 = 50.4 A
So the cable suitable for the above load.
after u will cross check voltage drop for the cable
