What is power cable size for 1 kw 1 phase motor over 500 meters?

It depends on the voltage that the motor needs, because a higher voltage requires less current for a given amount of power. Also a higher voltage can tolerate a higher voltage drop. So there are two things that lead to a thinner wire when the voltage is higher.

What is the acceptable percentage of voltage acceptable variance that most appliances will accept?

When doing voltage drop calculations the voltage to the connected devices should not drop below 3 % of the supplied voltage. <<>> "Most" appliances? that a tough one there is no standard. A few percent is no trouble, different appliances have different tolerances: no generalizations are possible.


Is 5 voltage drop acceptable for 480v motors?

NEC recommends a maximum 3% drop for branch circuits. 5 volts is well within this range. So, yes 5v drop is normally fine, unless the motor manufacturer has a more stringent requirement.

Does overload relay detect phase reversing of the 3 phase motor?

No, three phase motor overloads just monitor the motor's lines for an overload. Once detected the circuit holding the magnetic starter in will drop out and take the motor off line.


In 3 phase voltage increases and current decreases why?

If the load current descrease, there is less voltage drop caused by the resistance of the wire, so the voltage is higher.
