1 Cable from SMDB to FDB(G1)
Input Data system 3
( Uo ) No Load Voltage = 415
( P.F ) Power Factor = 0.80
( Vn ) Rated Voltage = 400
Ambient Temperature = 45
Max.conductor Temperature = 90
( L) Route length of Cable. = 190
( PL ) Load Power = 74,800

( IL ) Rated Current = PL / ( √3 x Vn x PF ) =

Cable selection is 1 x ( 4 x 150

Calculation & formula

Air Temperature factor = 0.80
Grouping Factor = 0.62
Rated current of Cable = 344
O.CF = 1.25
De- rated current of Cable
= Air Temp. factor x Grouping Factor x Rated current of Cable
= 170 A
De-rated current of cable > Rated Current ( I L ) x O.C.F

170 A > 169 A

2 Voltage Drop Calculations

( RAC ) AC Resistance of Cable = 0.150

(X) inductance of Cable = 0.08
P.F = cos(φ) = 0.80 Sin (φ) = 0.600

(VD) Voltage drop of cable ( L ) per Amp. Per legnth

= √3 × ( R (AC)90°×cos(φ) + X × sin(φ) )
= 0.29 V/Amp/Km

(VD Cable) Voltage drop of cable ( L ) = (V D x I L x L)

= 7.46

( V D% ) = (V D cable *100 / V n) = 1.87

( V D % ) total

1.87 % < 2.5 % (2)
