Considering 3core 185Sq mm XLPE cable;

Cable resistance and Reactance per KM = 0.164 + j 0.082

Length of cable, L = 900 meter

Maximum current carried by the cable, I 2x1600

(At ful load of both 1600 KVA Transformers) = --------
3 x 11

= 168 Amperes
===========

3 x I2 x L R +X2
Voltage drop in cable = ----
1000

= 3 x 1682 x 900 0.164 + 0.0822

------
1000
= 48V
===
48x100
% Voltage drop = --------- = 0.44%
11000 =====

Acceptable since % voltage drop is much below the permissible 3%
