Hi all,



I’ve been asked to run a cable for a 3 phase DC motor. Not having much experience with motors would you work out cable sizing the same?



In the picture attached are the details I have received.



Any help would be great

As far as I know, there is no such thing as a 3 phase dc motor.
from the nameplate, i would guess that it is a servomotor.
there are special types of cables used to connect them to the servo drive.

Can someone tell why a DC motor would have a frequency of 50Hz on the rating plate which clearly shows in the OP's picture

I assume that is a very large motor with a nominal weight of just under 5.6 Tonnes

I suspect either soneone is winding the OP up, or he is winding us up.

Until he comes back we won't know though.
