    Sizing of Conductores - IEC

    In my experiance with ducts like this, they will not be completely sealed. In time they will fill with dirt, also water will be washing mud on cables. I don't know the circumstances, maybe conditions in your case will be better, but if I had to sign this project, I would go with item number 71...

    Id fan VFD tripping on DC bus undervoltage. What are the reasons.

    I had VFD tripping on DC bus undervoltage once when voltage drop in the mains was significant. But as dpc said not enough information here.

    90kW motor protection

    Thank you for replies, I looked at the graphs for CB and motor data (motor is ELVEM 7T2 280M2 90kW 2970rpm IE2). Motor starting current is 5.9In, so I should expect 2In starting current through CB, reaction time for this current is about 50 seconds. Hammer mill does have a difficult start and...

Contractor built the cabinet and changed protection from fuses-bimetall combo to single circuit breaker...

    Cable calculation Star-Delta

    Thank you Mr. Che. Motor in question is 160kW, 279A. Cables are 4x95mm2, XLPE isolation, main protection is NH2 315A fuse. According to standard it needs to be shown that fuse protects the cable (Ib<In<Iz and I2<1.45Iz conditions from standard). Looking at single cable I can't show that it is...

    Cable calculation Star-Delta

    Hello, I am calculating a cable (selecting fuse/protection, calculating voltage drop) for star/delta starter of squirrel-cage motor by IEC standard, IEC 60364-4-43. When there are two cables in parallel that supply some load, let's say two cables that supply some electrical cabinet from a...
