1) determine load /design current. eg 13kw oven Ib=13000W/230V if 3 phase- 13000w/1.73*400V =56.52A In(circuit breaker size)=60A 2) In/ C1+C2+C3 (c is coefficient of ambience temperature of type of cable referred to BS tables) 3) value of above refer to BS tables for appropiate cale size. eg. based on 60A cable size is 16mm2 pvc/pvc cable size

Formula for working out cable size?
There is actually no specific formula used to work out cable size. In order to determine the type of cable you need and the size you need, you need to know the source of the supply, the voltage of the system, the ambient temperature, and the method you plan on laying out the cable.
What is electrical cable size for 18.5kw?
To answer this question the voltage is needed.
What will be the recommended size cable size for 400 KVA transformer?
3r x 300sq.mm Al. ar UG cable <<>> Wiring is sized by the amperage that is used by the load. The formula for amps is I = W/E. Amps = Watts (or VA)/Volts. As you can see an answer can not be given unless a voltage is stated. The lower the primary voltage the larger the amperage will be and likewise the larger the wire size will be.
What is the cable size for 55 kva genset with cable length of 56 meters?
To answer this question the voltage of the genset is needed.
How do you calculate the voltage drop for 238 KW 3 phase 415 V and length of circuit is 20 meters?
You need also to know the resistance of the cable. First you establish what the current of the load is. Then from that you calculate the wire size. From a wire size chart you find the wire resistance. Then use the formula I (squared) x R.

How do you calculate the cable size for a run of 30 meters?
to calculate the cable size of a run of 30 meters long you first will have to know the current of the appliance use the voltage drop formula V d = (mVxIxL)/1000 once the voltage drop is less than 2.5% of the nominal voltage, the cable should be upsize.
Formula for calculation of cable size?
copper bus bar,sqmm X 1.3times, aluminium means sqmm X 0.8 times.. but cable wise dont know can any1 tell me..

What would the cable size be for a 90 meter armoured cable with a 110 amp supply with a 330 amp start up?
To calculate voltage drop to size the wire, a voltage must be stated.
What is the cable size of 1600kVA transformer?
Cable size is determined by current. You did not provide the current, nor did you include the voltage so that we could calculate the current. Please restate the question, and include either the current or the voltage.
What is the Formula to know about of dc cable size in mm?
how to know dc cable sizes
What is the cable size for 55 kva genset with cable length of 56 meters?
To answer this question the voltage of the genset is needed.
What is cable size for 48V DC 30 A?
The correct size of cable depends on the length of the cable run, as well as the voltage and current. Another consideration is what voltage loss is acceptable ? Safest answer would be to use a cable sizing table or online tool: http://www.solar-wind.co.uk/cable-sizing-DC-cables.html Hope that helps. G.

What is size of power cable of 1137 kva generator?
It depends totally on the voltage used.
