hi guys am trying to work out a question with no luck. if i have a single phase load say30 kva how do i work out the load per phase if i was to split the load over a phases.
 
split over 3 phases would be 10kVA per phase. so on 415V, 10,000/240 = 41.67A
 
Basic calculation...

I = P ÷ (V x √3)
I = 30,000 ÷ (400 x √3)
I = 30,000 ÷ (400 x 1.73)
I = 43.35A per phase
