How to calculate voltage drop loss in HT 11000 Volts XLPE
Aluminium conductor cable. Any specific formula or Thumb
rule

Answer Posted / sunil ulange hit nidasohi

Voltage Drop depends upon various things

1.Resistance of cable
2.Reactanace of cable
3.Length of cable
4.Current Rating cable
5.Grouping factor
6.Underground or in air
7.single or Multi cables
8.Soil Resistivity if underground
9.Temperature
10. Current density

if all above points are provided then only its possible to
calculate voltage drop

following are the questions asked in interviews: 1) Considering the short circuit fault, which switchgear is preferable, SFU OR MCCB? Which operates faster? whicg one is popular in Indian Market and why? 2)Define SCPD. What is type2 coodination? 3)Why the contactor rating is higher for the fuseless selection than for fuse selection? whether the ratinf of SFU or MCCB remains the same in both the cases? 4)If the HP rating is known then can you calculate the ratings of L.V Switchgear(SFU/MCCB, contactor, OLR) without using the selection chart?

In Air circuit breaker LSIG protection unit is used. Without fault in cables (2 runs 3Cx150Sq.mm Copper, 1Kv grade, XPLE armored cable IR value is more than 550Mohm @ 500V Megger) and load section Long time Overcurrent protection is triggers and trips the unit. We changed LSIG protection with new factory tested unit. Even then fault is persisting. Please suggest the possible causes
