Cable & Circuit Breaker

Sizing:
Fourth floor :
o LPP-04 (58000 VA):
• Load Current (Ib) = (S/√3 x 380) = 58000 / (√3 x 380 ) = 88.12 A
• Current of Circuit Breaker (ICB) = 1.25 x Ib = 1.25 x 88.12 = 110.15 A
• Standard Rating Current of Circuit Breaker (IC_Standard) = 100 A (According to IEC Standard 60896_1)
• ICable = IC_Standard / De-rating Factors (DF)
• De-rating Factors (DF) = D.FAT x D.FSTR x D.FGF x D.FBD
Ambient Temperature de-rating factor (D.FAT) for PVC at 45 Co = 0.95?? (El-Sewedy Power Cable page
15).
Grouping factor (D.FGF) = ?? [(No. of Racks = 1, No. of Circuit = 1 ] (El-Sewedy Power Cable page 19).
D.FSTR = 1 (N/A in case of free in air)
D.FBD = 1 (N/A in case of free in air)
• So, De-rating Factors (DF) = D.FAT x D.FSTR x D.FGF x D.FBD = 0.95 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 0.883
• ICable = IC_Standard / De-rating Factors (DF) = 100/ 0.883= 36.21 A
• So, Cable Rating (IZ) = 39 A (El-Sewedy Power Cable page 48 – four Core Cable Free in Air, 0.6/1 (1.2)
KV)
• [(4 x 6 mm2) Cu/PVC/PVC + (1 x 6 mm2) Cu/PVC]

Approx. overall Diameter = 16 mm
