5.2 Cable Current Carrying Capacity

Minimum current carrying capacity of cable shall follow the following formula,
(Current carrying capacity of cable x De-rating factor) ≥ (Full load current)
Ic x K1 x K3 ≥ Im x K2
Where:
Ic : Current - carrying Capacity of cable (A)
Im : Full load current of load (A)
K1 : Group Derating Factor, Refer to IEC 60364-5-52
K2 : Safety Factor
K3 : Temperature Derating Factor.

Temperature de-rating factor to be given by formula,

Where :
TN : Conductor temperature limit in 0C
For XLPE insulated cables, TN = 90 0C
For PVC insulated cables, TN = 70 0C
Tab : Reference ambient in 0C = 300C
Ta : Maximum ambient in 0C = 230C.
Note : for detail de-rating factor can be shown at Attachment 4

Full load current (Im) to be given by formula,

a) For 3 phase circuit AC system

b) For single phase circuit AC system

c) For DC system

Where :
Im = Full load current (A)
P = Rating capacity (kW)
VL-L = Line to line voltage (V)
VL-N = Line to neutral voltage (V)
Vdc = DC Voltage (V)

PF = Power factor
Eff = Efficiency (%).

5.3 Short Circuit Considerations

The cable shall be sized so that the given fault current will not raise the cable temperature over
the permissible limiting temperature that will damage the cable. The minimum cable cross
sectional area to withstand expected short circuit current and its duration is defined by following
equation, which from sec. 434.3.2 of IEC 60364-4-43.

Where:
S : Nominal cross-sectional area of conductor (mm2)
Isc : Effective short-circuit (A)
t : Duration (s)
k : Constant factor (for Copper Conductor with EPR/XLPE insulation = 143)

5.3.1 Minimum Cable Size Protected by Circuit Breaker

Isc = 12.5 kA.
CB interrupting time = Relay response time + CB response time + time margin
= 0.05 s + 0.06 s + 0.04 s
= 0.15 s
a)MV Copper Cable protected by Circuit Breaker

5.3.2 Minimum Cable Size Protected by Fuse

Isc = 12.5 kA.
Fuse interrupting time = 0.01 s
MV Copper Cable protected by Fuse

5.4 Cable Length

Cable lengths for cable are calculated using formula below:

(3) At steady state condition, for 1 phase - 2 wire cable

(4) At steady state condition, for DC cable

Where:
L : Allowable cable length
Im : Full load current of load
Is : Motor starting current
R : Cable resistant
