Use this formula to find amperage when kW is shown. Amps = kW x 1000/1.73 x Volts x pf. Use a power factor of .85 for the formula. Once the current is calculated re-ask the question for cable size for the calculated current.

What is the armour cable size for 45kw 3phase ac motor 2965rpm?

At 2965 rpm it sounds like an induction motor for a 50 Hz supply. A 45 kW motor would draw about 55 kW from the supply with a power factor of 0.85, so that is 65 kVA, and on a 415 v 3-phase supply that is a current of 90 amps. For armoured XLPE cale the size needed is at least 16 mm2 Probably 25 mm2 would be preferred for a permanent installation but it would depend on how the cable is installed, how much free air movement there is around it etc.

What is the cable size for a 26kw induction motor 50metre run for cable 415v?

For a 26kW, 415V induction motor with a 50m cable run, you would typically need a cable size of at least 6mm^2 to ensure proper voltage drop and current carrying capacity. However, it is always recommended to consult local electrical codes and standards or a licensed electrician to determine the exact cable size needed for your specific installation.
