Hello everyone please can someone calculate the current for a three phase machine at 28kw unity pf I already I have seemed to forgot how to use the calculator cheers in advance 27kw three phase
 
...For example if I bought a 3m length of conduit, I wouldn't expect it to be anywhere from 2.5m to 3.5m. And if the conduit was described as 3000mm long, I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually between, say, 2990mm and 3010mm....

And if the conduit is described as 300cm long, it's probably from Homebase, because retailers think that the general public need units that are as close as they can get to 'inches' !
 
and whats wrong with inches. easily measured from end of thumb to 1st joint? bloody french centimeters, based on an inaccurate measurement by ratbag revolutionaries that chopped the heads off anyone with a brain.
 
Just give em the answer, if they don't want to do the work themselves it'll come back to bite em one day.
That's my view, like it or lump it [emoji6]

So what about the poor customer who has most likely searched for an electrician to come and wire a new machine in for his business, but ends up getting somebody who can't be bothered to work out the load. If that's the case I'd hate to see the rest of the install.
 
People who want to learn will learn, those who don't won't.

True. But what motivation will they get when they get all the answers off a forum, and let's be honest, it's a pretty basic question. If you really must give them the answer, why not give them the formula you used and a bit of working out so they can do it themselves next time.
