Three set (each phase contain 2 cable of 400 mmsq CU XLPE
AWA) of single core cables are connected to 11 KV motor of
14 MW & the switch gear supplay is taken from 11kv feeder &
this supplay taken from 275 KV substation. Problem is one
pair cable(L3- 2 cable ) getting very hot & gland melted
and damaged in switch gear side. the other two cable
haven't any more hot(ambient temp only & L3 haveing 95- 100
Degree C. The same problem happened in 275 KV substation
switch gear side also where the supply taken for 11 kv
switch gear. But here L2 phese cable had problem. Why it is
happening like this?. The cable having temperature
different at different location from gland side inthe case
of 11KV feeder of 275 kv substation. why ?

Get a thermal imager or camera, you will see the loose
connection very easily. I also bet it's a loose connection.
Else one of the cable cores has been broken. Check for sharp
bendings on cable. Copper braids still connected/earthed
properly?

What are the special cables required for explosion proof wiring?
When we use air circuit breaker, it has O/L protection ,time delay SC protection, Instataneous SC protection & ground fault protection. They all have some setting range. But what is the suitable/allowable setting for the above protection which will be safe for the equipment? For example-O/L protection setting have a range of (0.4,0.45,0.5,0.55,0.6,0.65,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0)xIn Time delay SC protection have a range of (1.25,1.5,2,3,4,6,8,10,12)xIn Time delay setting is 0.02,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 Instataneous setting is fixed to 20xIn Gound fault setting is given 100A,300A,600A,900A,1200A This setting are for 2500A ACB. So what will be the basic allowable setting for the above protection? is there any formulae to calculate this<
WE know that for Inductor X=2pifL,In DC f=0,then X=0 so,V=IX=0;But In the DC excitation of rotor of AC generator,DC motor field coil which coils are inductor so why does not applying DC voltage short the rotor coil of AC generator and field coil of motor?If it would then DC source might be damaged but it is not happened.
