Cable Capacity
For Cu Wire Current Capacity (Up to 30
Sq.mm) = 6X Size of Wire in Sq.mm
Ex. For 2.5 Sq.mm = 6×2.5 = 15 Amp, For 1
Sq.mm = 6×1 = 6 Amp, For 1.5 Sq.mm = 6×1.5
= 9 Amp
For Cable Current Capacity = 4X Size of Cable
in Sq.mm, Ex. For 2.5 Sq.mm = 4×2.5 = 9 Amp.
Nomenclature for cable Rating = Uo/U
where Uo = Phase-Ground Voltage, U = Phase-
Phase Voltage, Um = Highest Permissible

Earthing Resistance
Earthing Resistance for Single Pit = 5Ω,
Earthing Grid = 0.5Ω
As per NEC 1985 Earthing Resistance should
be < 5Ω.
Voltage between Neutral and Earth <= 2 Volt
Resistance between Neutral and Earth <= 1Ω
Creepage Distance = 18 to 22mm/KV (Moderate
Polluted Air) or
Creepage Distance = 25 to 33mm/KV (Highly
Polluted Air)

Insulation Resistance
Insulation Resistance Value for Rotating
Machine = (KV+1) MΩ.
Insulation Resistance Value for Motor (IS 732)
= ((20xVoltage (L-L)) / (1000+ (2xKW)).
Insulation Resistance Value for Equipment
(<1KV) = Minimum 1 MΩ.
Insulation Resistance Value for Equipment
(>1KV) = KV 1 MΩ per 1KV.
Insulation Resistance Value for Panel = 2 x
KV rating of the panel.
Min Insulation Resistance Value (Domestic) =
50 MΩ / No of Points. (All Electrical Points with
Electrical fitting & Plugs). Should be less than
0.5 MΩ
Min Insulation Resistance Value (Commercial)
= 100 MΩ / No of Points. (All Electrical Points
without fitting & Plugs).Should be less than 0.5
MΩ.
Test Voltage (A.C) for Meggering = (2X Name
Plate Voltage) +1000
Test Voltage (D.C) for Meggering = (2X Name
Plate Voltage).
Submersible Pump Take 0.4 KWH of extra
Energy at 1 meter drop of Water.

Transformer
Current Rating of Transformer = KVA x 1.4
Short Circuit Current of T.C /Generator =
Current Rating / % Impedance
No Load Current of Transformer =< 2% of
Transformer Rated current
Capacitor Current (Ic) = KVAR / 1.732xVolt
(Phase-Phase)
Typically the local utility provides transformers
rated up to 500kVA For maximum connected
load of 99kW,
Typically the local utility provides transformers
rated up to 1250kVA For maximum connected
load of 150kW.
The diversity they would apply to apartments is
around 60%
Maximum HT (11kV) connected load will be
around 4.5MVA per circuit.
4No. earth pits per transformer (2No. for body
and 2No. for neutral earthing),
Clearances, approx.1000mm around TC allow for
transformer movement for replacement.

Diesel Generator
Diesel Generator Set Produces = 3.87 Units
(KWH) in 1 Litter of Diesel.
Requirement Area of Diesel Generator = for
25KW to 48KW = 56 Sq.meter, 100KW = 65
Sq.meter.
