B Calculation B1 Required cross cross section section of cable cable for short circuit circuit withstanding withstanding capability capability The new cable shall withstand a Fault level of 25 kA for 1 sec. Cable cross section of 300 of 300 sq.mm is able to withstand the fault level level = 42.9 kA for 1 sec. ( Refer cable catalogue in Attachment-1, sheet 3 ) For adequacy check of continuous current capacity & voltage drops, following steps are utilised ( Refer attached sheet for calculation ) B2 Dera Derate ted d curre current nt

LV CABLE SIZING Derating factors : The following De-rating factors are considered for LV cable sizing.: Laid In Ground
Ground Temperature @ 40 0C =
0.82
A
(refer Table 3 of Ducab catalogue in Attachment-2, sheet 3)
Soil Thermal resistivity = 2.5 deg.C m/W
0.74
B
(refer Table 4 of Ducab catalogue in Attachment-2, sheet 3)
Depth of installation @ 700 mm=
0.96
C
(refer Table 5 of Ducab catalogue in Attachment-2, sheet 4)
Grouping of cables for 5 circuits
0.59
D
(refer Table 7 of Ducab catalogue in Attachment-2, sheet 5)
Hence Total De-rating factor for Cables =
