Proposed Cable size 240 Sq.mm |
| Cable Allowable Current (I) | 410 Amps |
| Resistance '(R) | 0.989 Ohms / Km |
| Inductance (X) | 0.071 Ohms / Km |
| Imbedance (Z) | = | √ (R2 + X2) |
| Imbedance (Z) | = | 0.1217 Ohms / Km |
| Voltage Drop | = | Allowable current (I) x Imbedance (Z) |
| 410 x 0.1217 |
| = |
49.89 Volt / Km |
| Allowable Length for 2.5% Voltage Drop | = | V x % voltage drop x 1000 |
| Voltage drop / Km |
| 460 x 0.025 x 1000 |
| 49.89 |
| = |
230.5 mts |
| Allowable Current in Amps 2.5% Voltage drop for length |
| of the cable | = | Voltage x voltage drop x 1000 |
| Required length x Cable Imbedance / Km |
| = | 460 x 0.025 x 1000 | 460 x 0.025 x 1000 |
| 100 x 0.1217 | 230.5 x 0.1217 |
| = |
944 Amps |
409.9 Amps |
