The cable size depends on a few factors, such as the supply voltage, the method of starting the motor, (direct-on-line, or star delta) and the length of cable required to compensate for voltage drop. Also, if the cable is copper or aluminum.
110 kW motor has a rated current of 200 amps at 415 volts, so the correct copper cable size would have a cross-sectional area of 75 square mm., if the motor is started direct-on-line.
At 660 volts, the rated current would be 118 volts and the cable size would be 35 square mm.

Wire is sized by the amount of current the load requires. With a 110 kW load the voltage is needed to calculate the amperage. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
Need to know what the voltage of the motor is.
you need the current of motor or the KW/HP rating
110 volts divided by 1,300 watts(1.3 kw) = .09 kw or 900 watts.
3 core 35 sq mm alu. Or 3 core 25 sq mm cup.
As the motor is drawing 9.7×110 = 1,067 watts (or 1.067 kW), and delivering 1.25×746 watts (or .9325 kW) of mechanical energy, it should release 1,067-932.5 = 134.5 watts (or .1345 kW) of heat.
