    This document contains calculations for sizing cables and fuses for single phase and 3 phase circuits. For a single phase circuit with 89A current, the required fuse size is calculated as 36A. For another single phase circuit with 40A current, the minimum cable size is calculated as 25mm2. Voltage drop calculations show a 3 phase circuit with 400V line-to-line voltage has 395.5V line-to-neutral, and a single phase circuit with 228.3V voltage has 224.65V after taking into account voltage drops. Cable sizes of 25mm2 and 6mm2 are specified for these circuits. For a 3 phase circuit with 100A current, simultaneous overloading

    Q1

    Ca = 0.71
    Cg = 0.57

    It = 89 A

    It >or = In/(0.71 x 0.57)

    In < or = 89 x 0.71 x0.57 = 36 A

    Fuse rated at 32 A (from the chart as it


    passes 40 A without restriction
    Q1

    Ib = 34A
    In = 40A
    Ca = 0.71
    Cg = 0.52

    Not simultaneous overlain

    It > ib/ (Ca x Cg) = 34/(0.71 x 0.52)

    92.1 A

    So from table cable size min 25 mm2


    3 Phase :
    Q2
    VD = (1.5 x 100 x 30)/1000 =
    4.5V
    Line to line Voltage = 400V
    400 – 4.5 = 395.5 V
    Line to Neutral = 395.5/sqrt 3 =
    228.3 V
    1 phase
    VD = (7.3 x 20 x 25 )/1000 =
    3.65V
    228.3 – 3.64 = 224.65V

    1 phase : 228.3V, 25A, 6 mm2, 20 m

    3 phase : 400V 100A, 25 mm2, 30m


    Q3
    Ca = 0.71
    Cg = 0.73
    Ib = 52A

    If simultaneous overloading

    In = 52/(0.71x0.73) = 100A
    It = 100/(0.71x0.73) = 193.5A
    Cable 70 mm2

    No simultaneous overloading
    It = In = 100A
    25 mm2
