SINGLE PHASE FORMULA FOR CABLE SIZING.
REQUIRED DATA:-
I :- AMPERES
L :- LENGTH OF CABLE.
K :- CONDUCTIVITY OF COPPER(58)
:- CONDUCTIVITY OF ALUMINUM (36)
Vd:- VOLTAGE DROP.
GIVEN DATA:
I:- 50 AMPERES.
L:- 100 METERS.
Vd:- 3% ACCEPTABLE OF 230 VOLTS
FORMULA:-
AREA (mm2)= 2*I*L/(K*Vd)
= 2*50*100/(58*6.9)
= 24.98 mm2
= ALMOST 25 mm2
FOR THREE PHASE:
AREA(mm2) = 1.732*50*100/(58*12)
= 12.44 mm2
= ALMOST 15 mm2
3% voltage drop of 400 volts =12 volts.
ABOVE EXPLAINED FOR IS PROPERLT CORRECT.USE AND ENJOY.
