Slection criteria of MV/HV cable size for primary distribution

1 SCOPE
The conductor size in the cables for any installation is also governed by its ability to carry short circuit current of sy
selected on the basis of continous load current. But in case of MV/HV distribution it is always safer to
expected short circuit current .Short circuit current rating of cable should in line with short circuit capacity of dampin
breaker, Transformer & reactor etc.becide its capacity to carry desired load current.Short circuit ratings of cables e
tables & have been calculated on the basis of IEC-949 & IEC-986 & on the following assumption

a. Temperaturs of conductor just proir to short circuit

i) With XPLE insulation- 90 Deg. C

 ii) With PVC insulation-70 Deg.C

b. Maximum permissible conductor temperature during short circuit

i) With XPLE insulation-250 Deg. C

ii) With PVC insulation-160 Deg.C

c. Volumetric specification heat of the conductor

i)With Aluminium conductor-2.5 x 10-3 J/Deg.C MM3

ii)With Aluminium conductor-2.5 x 10-3 J/Deg.C MM3

d. Receprocal of temperature co- efficient of resistance at 9 Deg.C

i) With Aluminium conductor -228

ii) With copper conductor -234.5
Short circuit current rating at different duration may be calculated as

Ish(for duration) = Ish (for 1 Sec). Ish for 1 sec. Duration is given in relevent tables in KA.
T t=Time duration required tobe calculated of short circuited in Sec.

SELECTION CRITERIOA OF H.V./MV CABLES FOR PRIMARY DISTRIBUTION

REQUIRED DATES FOR EXAMPLE

1) Nominal System voltage at H.T. Side 11 KV
2) Short cricuit level for H.T. system 25 KA
3) Fault withstand time for H.T. CBs 0.5 SEC
4) Formula for calculating H.T. cable size
With Aluiminium cond./XLAP insulated cable = lsh X√ t= 25 X √ 0.5
0.094

Henca nearest higher size 240 sqmm is required
With Copper cond./XLAP insulated cable = lsh X√ t = 25 X √ 0.5
