What size cable do I need?

[Darkwood]

:what:
I got a 7amp battery in my phone so it aint going to die in a day

That wasn't the message i was getting across ..its like taking calculators into maths exams when it was introduced the numeric skills of school leavers fell dramatically because they didn't have to think about it anymore but the moment they needed to they were stuck because they forgot!

Give up what size cable do you need ?

Top of my head Im gonna guess -- put in some 50mm and you will cover all bases!

Am I right in thinking about 104 from the kva?

I believe I need 6mm cable. But I'm going to get the full specs first.

You believe?

Crikey you're brave

 

[electricshock]

Don't worry guys I didn't see cossie post.

Your very brave I came out with about 103amps ish

I only worked out amps from kva

 

[electricshock]

104 amps over 3 phases. That's about 35amp per phase

You sure...?

You really need to have all the correct values to perform meaningful calculations. You have to have the right spec to base your maths on and negate any guess work. Get the details from the manufacturer. Apply them to your current calcs then come back.

To give you a hint. For single phase im getting around 95mm for it
