    WIRING SCHEME OF A SMALL WORKSHOP

    AIM
    To draw the Wiring scheme of a small workshop with two induction motors using electrical drafting
    software.

    REQUIREMENT

    Auto CAD software, PC

    THEORY

    In small industries, every motor must be controlled by a main switch. A three-phase motor would need
    a triple pole switch with fuse in each phase. In addition, a starter may be required for starting and
    stopping the motor. The size of switch fuse unit and that of the starter will depend upon the rating of
    the motor.
    Depending upon the rating of motor, PVC cables of suitable size are to be used for wiring. For large
    capacity motors, three phase underground cables are used. Generally, wires or cables are enclosed in a
    rigid heavy gauge conduit of suitable size. Flexible conduits may be used for connections from motor
    switch to starter and from starter to motor terminals.
    Each motor has to be controlled separately from the mains through distribution boards. Looping out of
    the motors (i.e. connecting two or more motors in one circuit) should be avoided as far as possible.
    In small workshops only a switchboard or distribution board is used for carrying out the distribution of
    power.

    Design Considerations of Electrical Installation in Small Industries


    The details of calculation for deciding the cable size, fuse rating, switches, starters etc. for the
    installation of motors are discussed.

    Motor current
    The current rating of cables for supply to motor may be based upon the normal full load current of
    motor, but the rating of fuse should be based upon the starting current. The rating of fuse should not be
    greater than twice the rating of cables.

    Deciding the cable size


    The cable shall have a current carrying capacity of not less than 150 per cent of the motor full load
    current rating

    Determination of the size of conduit


    The required size of conduit depends upon three factors: (1) the number of cables to be installed (2) the
    cross-sectional area of the cable and (3) the permissible conduit fill.

    Deciding the fuse rating


    The criterion for selecting the correct size of fuse for motor protection is that it may carry the starting
    current safely.

    28
    Deciding the starter, distribution board, Main switch
    Different types of motors have different methods of starting as listed below

    The specification of the distribution board is decided from the number of circuits to be fed from it. The
    voltage rating of the distribution board is decided by the voltage rating of the circuits which are fed
    from it and its current rating is the highest starting current of the circuits fed from it.

    If the main switch has to control a group of motors, its current rating should be equal to the starting
    current of the motor of highest rating plus the full load current of remaining motors.
