Selection of required cross section for extension of cables and power lines
This procedure takes into consideration.
1.
The ohmic and inductive resistance of the line with an admissible loss of voltage of 5% and cos phi =
0,8 as per voltage-frequency-curves.
2.
The admissible warming-up of the lines as per VDE standard (table of required minimum cross section).
ATTENTION!
The larger one of both cross sections has to be chosen.
Example:
Nominal voltage 1 ~ 115 V, 60 Hz
Rated current 15 A
Line length 100 m
15 A x 80 m = 1200 A x m
Cross section as per diagramm: 6 mm
