Calculating the Combined Derating Factor:

Cable Derated Current Capacity:

The Required Load Current Per Cable:




Check : Review the Cable Current Carrying Capacity
The cable is loaded at: {{calcvals.cableLoadingPercent}}%

Step 2 :   Cable Voltage Drop

Looking Up the Cable Impedance:

Referencing standard 'AS/NZS 3008.1.1.2017' for a {{calcvals.MimsVoltage}} {{calcvals.CableType}} {{calcvals.CableFormation}}, three phase cable with {{calcvals.CableInsulation}} insulation and {{calcvals.CableFormation == "Multicore" ? calcvals.MulticoreArrangement : ""}} {{calcvals.Metal}} conductors laid in {{calcvals.SinglecoreArrangement}} at an operating temberature of {{calcvals.MimsTemp}} {{calcvals.CuTemp}}{{calcvals.AlTemp}}℃, finding the smallest cable with an impedance lower than {{calcvals.maxImpedance}} max impedance of {{calcvals.maxImpedance}} Ohm/m, we find that the resistance and reactance for a cable with {{calcvals.conductor}}mm² size conductors is:

{{data.Col2}} {{data.Col3}} {{data.Col4}}
(Table 3.1)
Calculating the Cables Impedance:

Calculate the Actual Voltage Drop:

The Voltage Drop is calculated from the equation


Cable Derated Current Capacity:


Check : Cable Voltage Drop
Pass - Voltage Drop is Ok.

The computed voltage drop equates to {{ calcvals.voltagedroppercent }} % of the supply voltage, this is less than the maximum permissable voltage drop.

Fail - Excessive Voltage Drop

The computed voltage drop equates to {{ calcvals.voltagedroppercent }} % of the supply voltage, which is greater than the maximum permissable voltage drop.

Step 3 :   Short Circuit Withstand

{{data.Col2}} {{data.Col3}} {{data.Col4}}
(Table 4.1)
Calculate the Minimum Conductor Size:

The Smallest conductor size that can withstand the potential fault current





Check : Review the Cable Short Circuit Capacity
Pass - The {{ calcvals.conductor }} mm2 Cable is large enougth to withstand the potential fault current.
Fail - Cable is undersized for the potential fault current.

Step 3 :  Earth Fault Loop Impedance

Calculate the Earth Fault Trip Current:
{{data.Col2}} {{data.Col3}} {{data.Col4}}
(Table 5.1)

The earth fault trip current is calculated from the equation


The Maximum Earth Loop Cable Length is calculated from:


Check : Maximum Cable Length for Earth Loop Impedance
Pass - Cable Length is Ok for earth fault loop impedance.
Fail - Cable is too long, and additional earth conductor will be required.
