How to calcute the cable size for both HT and LT please
specify the formula for that

Answer Posted / kanchan dogra
Selection of HT cable is based on
1. short circuit calculation
2. Full load current capacity
1. Short Ckt. calculation
if total load is 3000 KVA, V 11 KV
short ckt MVA on HV side = 350 MVA (As per standard practice)
short ckt. current Ik= MVA/root3 x KV
350/root3 x 1= 18.4 KA
duration of short Ckt= 1 Second
cross section area of the conductor = Ik x root T/.094
18.4x root T/.094 = 95 SQ.mm
2. Full Load current
Total Load= 3000 KVA
System Voltage= 11 KV
Full load current = KVA/ root3 x KV
3000/root 3 x 11= 157 Amp.
derating factor = .7
current carrying capacity after derating = 157/.7 = 224.95 AMP.
Hence select cable for this current.

Sir, My doubt on cable sizing calculation, Load:74 KW calculated cable 1 run 50mm2. Now client asking us to reduce cable size by increasing runs. Sir, My question now when my mind strikes with 2 options 1) Divide load 74/2 = 36 and calculate cable for 36+36 making it 2 runs or 2) Simply i can divide 50mm2 /2 ie. 2 runs of 25mm2 Please suggest me sir
