Max. Voltage Drop Allowed (V)

V = Operating Voltage * % of Voltage Drop Allowed

Load Current (A)

A = Total Watts / 1.732 * Operating Voltage * Power Factor

Actual Voltage Drop (V)

1 Run Cable (V) = Voltage Drop/A/M * Load Current * Cable Length / 1000
2 Run Cable (V) = (Voltage Drop/A/M (Load Current / 2) Cable Length / 1000)

Max. Voltage Drop Allowed at Starting (V)

V = Operating Voltage * & of Voltage Drop Allowed at Starting

Actual Voltage Drop at Starting (V)

1 Run Cable (V) = Max. Voltage Drop Allowed * Motor Starting Current * Cable Length / 1000
2 Run Cable (V) = (Max. Voltage Drop Allowed (Motor Starting Current / 2) Cable Length / 1000)

Dearated Current (A)

A = load Current / 0.92 * 0.95 * 0.985 *0.84 * 0.8
IF(ISERROR(AVERAGE(A1:A4)),"No Numbers",AVERAGE(A1:A4))
Derating Factor Calculation for Cables

a) Cables directly buried in ground

Soil resitivity facor = 1.14
Ground temparature factor = 0.86
Depth of laying factor( for 0.6 mtr ) = 0.98
Group factor for Multicore cables = 0.84( 3 ckts)/ 0.77(6 ckts)
Overall Derating factor =1.14* 0.86 * 0.98 * 0.84 = 0.81( 3 ckts)
Overall Derating factor =1.14* 0.86 * 0.98 * 0.77= 0.74( 3 ckts)
b) Cables in ducts
Soil resitivity facor = 1.06
Ground temparature factor = 0.86
Depth of laying factor( for 0.6 mtr ) = 0.99
Group factor for Multicore cables = 0.93( 3 ckts)/ 0.9 (6 ckts)
Overall Derating factor =1.06 * 0.86 * 0.99 * 0.93 = 0.84 (3 ckts)
Overall Derating factor =1.06 * 0.86 * 0.99 * 0.9 = 0.81 (6 ckts)
c)

For Cables in Air

Ambient temparature factor @40oC (inside building) = 0.91
Spacing factor (BS 7671 table 4B1) (4 ckts)= 0.88
Overall Derating factor = 0.91*0.88 = 0.8
