How to find out the Full load current [Relation between horse

power and kilo watt] and how to select a proper cable [Power
cable size selection chart]
In previous posts i have explained about electrical drawings, electrical panel component etc.. For
smooth working of motor which is connected to the mcc panel, cable size selection has an important
role. We have to consider lot of things for selecting a proper cable, like motor rating (Kilowatt,Horse
power),Voltage(230v, 415 v etc.),Phase(Single, 3 phase),Temperature, Distance between motor and
mcc.
Before that i will expalin how to find out the cable current rating.
1.Incoming suppy cable rating.
Motor Full load current * 1.2
2.Inside cables Motor circuit cable rating.
Motor full load current * 0.7
Now you will be having a doubt how to find out the full load current of a motor?
Formula for finding full load current of a motor.
3 phase:
Full load current=(746*hp)/(1.732*V*pf*eff) or KW/(1.732*v*pf*eff)
hp=horse power
v =Voltage
pf=Power factor
ef=efficiency
1 hp=745.7 W=0.746 kw
