in case of motor, only 3core cable are used. Because there is phase balence between the winding. But in case of wiring,panel installation, 3.5c cables are normally used. Because there is unbalenced between the phase current. So the neutral taken to give the return path to flow of unbalenced (rush) current. Which always less than phase current,so the neutral cable is take half of the phase cable.
