	Surely you don't mean 5155 amps??!? __________________ A great troubleshooting tip...."When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

	Hi, Can you be bit more specific??? 1)The 5155 Amps is it a per phase current or three phase current?? 2)When you say conductor, is it Areial conductor or Insulated cable?? 3) What is the application? 4) What is distance of the load from the source?

	hello, it is 3 phase system i want to calculate the size of conductor (aluminium) from generator to distribution panel. rating-3000KW voltage 420V current=5155A distance=13 meter conductor=aluminium bars (not insulated)
