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 / tauqeer hussain

We can use fromula for Voltage Drop Calculation
VD = mVxIxL/1000
VD = Voltage Drop
mV = Milli Volt(Given Rating Cable Manufacture)
Example 16sqmm mV =2.5 mv/a/m
I = Load Current
L = Lenght of Cable
Exapmle #
Voltage = 415vAC, Ampere = 25, Length of Cable = 100Meter

VD = 2.5x25x100/1000
= 6250/1000
= 6.25 (in volt)
= 1.50% (in percent)

Is This Answer Correct ?    35 Yes 8 No
