first calculate the full load amps of the motor by using formula,
line amps = KW * 1000 / (line volts*1.732*P.F)
Of the mentioned motor the amps will be 96 amps at the P.F 0.8. The motor will have star delta starter so the cable size would be 2 runs of 3c x 70 sq mm AL if laid in air.
For an Induction motor, it is recommended that the cable size should be able to bear high motor starting current. For a 75KW, the motor should be run with a special control method: an auto transformer method or Star/Delta method so as to reduce the earlier mentioned high starting current.
Working with a star/delta control method, the motor starts in Star and Runs in Delta.
Star arrangement delivers about 58% of the motor voltage and allows line current to pass into the coils of the motor so that you will require 2x50mm square copper cables per phase to power a 75KW induction motor.
It depends on the type of conductor, the configuration of the cores, the type of insulation, the method of installation, and whether or not the cable is armoured! Work out the load current, remembering the 0.75 kW is the output power, not the input power, power! And then check out the Tables in BS 7671:2008Requirements for Electrical Installations.
electric cable for 112KW MOTOR 3 phase 385volts 50 hz at 2900 rpm
this motor almost draws 198 amps at 0.8 pf
so 150sqmm Al cable or 135 sqmm Copper cable are recommended
The current can be estimated at 120 amps, for which the cable size for a short run like 10m is 35 mm-sqd.
A 1/0 MCM copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 1% or less when supplying 129 amps for 33 feet on a 415 volt system.

Induction motor is an AC electric motor which uses electromagnetic induction to induce the electric current in the rotor to produce torque.
Induction motor used in industries for variable speed machines . Induction motor has always lagging power factor. Less cost compared to syn. Motor.
Standard induction motor has a closed squirrel cage rotor, where as open ended induction motor has split phase rotor.
slip power is a power which is develop by the induced voltage and current in an induction motor
Yes, that is one of the major advantages of a three-phase induction motor.
Sir, what is the cable size for 1.5kw 3phase induction motor 400v?
If I consider power factor is 0.85 & motor efficiency is 95% then you have required 4 sq mm wire which is able allow passing 25.47 A current trough it.
To answer this question the voltage of the motor must be stated.
240 or 415
Yes the Induction motor works on Electromagnetic induction principle.
The answer is yes. I had seen 110kW pump start on DOL starter
Induction motor is an AC electric motor which uses electromagnetic induction to induce the electric current in the rotor to produce torque.
16 mm square
A single phase induction motor is mainly used in fans.It is capacitor start capacitor run induction motor.In three phase induction motor squirrel cage induction motor is mainly used in elevators,lifts,cranes.slip ring induction motor is mainly used in electrically driven ships.
AC Induction Motor
1. Induction Motor has an air-gap but transformer has no air gap rather it is mutually link. 2. Induction Motor has high no-load current than transformer. 3. Induction Motor is a dynamic device. 4. Induction Motor has high power factor.
yes
