Offshore •
Ground/ambient temperature (IEE wiring regulations 16th 19991)
This derating (correction) factor is determined by design temperature. ♦ Correction factor for ambient temperature where protection is against short-circuit. Refer to Table 4C1 (Refer to appendix - D) ♦ Correction factor for ambient temperature where the overload protective device is a semi-enclosed fuse to BS3036. Refer to Table 4C2 (Refer to appendix - D) Table 4C1 & 4C2 show correction factor is 1 if cable in air based on ambient temperature on 300C, For example a correction factor of 0.91 shall be applied for XLPE & EPR cables and 0.87 for PVC if maximum design ambient temperature is 400C required by project. The choice of the type of insulation of the cables shall also consider the ambient temperature correction factor. •
Grouping of cables
There are many methods of installation of cables: such as Open and clipped direct (Method 1), Cables embedded direct in building materials (Method 1), in conduit (Method 3 & 4), in trucking (Method 3), on trays (Method 11), in free air, on cleats, brackets or a ladder (Method 12 & 13), Correction factor for grouped cables shall be applied refer to Tables 4B1, 4B2 and 4B3. (Refer to IEE wiring regulations 16th 19991) Generally, cable installation offshore shall be laying in cable ladder/tray. Case 1: in free air – Refer to Table 52-E4 (IEC 60364-5-523) see appendix E As per IEC60092-352, the current rating values may be considered applicable, without correction factor, for cables bunched together on cable trays, unless more than 6 cables (Diagram 1), which may be expected to operate simultaneously at their full rated current, are laid close together in a cable bunch in such a way that there is an absence of free air circulation around them.
Page 4 of 21
ELECTRCIAL CABLE SIZING
Page 5 of 21
In this case, a correction factor of 0.79 should be applied on current rating value.
Diagram 1 – Cables bunched (6 cables bunch) and clipped direct to a nonmetallic surface ♦ Single core cables – Refer to Table 52-E5 (see Appendix F) Both HV and LV single core cables shall be arranged in the trefoil formation and shall have a distance of half cable diameter, ½De, from the side of the cable ladder or tray. Multiple runs of trefoils shall also have a space of separation of two cable diameter, 2De, as shown in the Diagram 2 below:
½De
De
2De
Diagram 2 – Single core cables installation All single core cables shall be bunched in trefoil formation, as shown in Diagram 2 above. Since there are less than six cables bunched together, the cable grouping correction factor is 1 applicable in one layer ladder here. However, correction factor 0.97/0.96 shall be applied in two (2)/three (3) layers of ladder respectively. ♦ Multicore cables- Refer to Table 52-E4 (see Appendix E) HV multicore cables shall be installed in a single layer and touching as shown in Diagram 3 below:
Diagram 3 – HV multicore cables installation The cable grouping correction factor is 1 applicable in one (1) layer of ladder for one cable only. Others grouping factor refer to table 52-E4 (see Appendix E).

ELECTRCIAL CABLE SIZING
Page 6 of 21
LV multicore cables may not be installed in single layers and may grouped as bunches of 6 cables, as shown in Diagram 1. A grouping factor 0.73 shall be applied in three (3) layers and six (6) circuits requirement. •
As a result Derating Factor = ambient temperature correction factor × cable grouping correction factor =0.91 x 0.73 =0.66.

Other Frequency In our scope of work, cable for Electrical power system usually shall be 50Hz or 60Hz. High frequency will not be applicable and shall not be covered in this presentation.
1.5
Resistance Data Normally resistance of cable is provided at 200C by Vendor. The formula for actual resistance as a function of temperature is below. R=R0 (1+ α (t-200C) R0:
Resistance at t=200C
t
Conductor temperature 0C
α
0.00393 for copper
The resistances are based on the maximum cable operating temperature of 85oC (EPR) and 90oC (XLPE) for the different cable type codes selected. For example: Resistance at 200C of the 3C-4mm2 cables is 4.70 based on Draka Catalogue page 52 see Appendix A, so Resistance of the XLPE cable shall be R= 4.70 x (1+0.00393 x (900C-200C)) =4.975ohm/km 2.0

Offshore •
Ground/ambient temperature (IEE wiring regulations 16th 19991)
This derating (correction) factor is determined by design temperature. ♦ Correction factor for ambient temperature where protection is against short-circuit. Refer to Table 4C1 (Refer to appendix - D) ♦ Correction factor for ambient temperature where the overload protective device is a semi-enclosed fuse to BS3036. Refer to Table 4C2 (Refer to appendix - D) Table 4C1 & 4C2 show correction factor is 1 if cable in air based on ambient temperature on 300C, For example a correction factor of 0.91 shall be applied for XLPE & EPR cables and 0.87 for PVC if maximum design ambient temperature is 400C required by project. The choice of the type of insulation of the cables shall also consider the ambient temperature correction factor. •
Grouping of cables
There are many methods of installation of cables: such as Open and clipped direct (Method 1), Cables embedded direct in building materials (Method 1), in conduit (Method 3 & 4), in trucking (Method 3), on trays (Method 11), in free air, on cleats, brackets or a ladder (Method 12 & 13), Correction factor for grouped cables shall be applied refer to Tables 4B1, 4B2 and 4B3. (Refer to IEE wiring regulations 16th 19991) Generally, cable installation offshore shall be laying in cable ladder/tray. Case 1: in free air – Refer to Table 52-E4 (IEC 60364-5-523) see appendix E As per IEC60092-352, the current rating values may be considered applicable, without correction factor, for cables bunched together on cable trays, unless more than 6 cables (Diagram 1), which may be expected to operate simultaneously at their full rated current, are laid close together in a cable bunch in such a way that there is an absence of free air circulation around them.
Page 4 of 21
ELECTRCIAL CABLE SIZING
Page 5 of 21
In this case, a correction factor of 0.79 should be applied on current rating value.
Diagram 1 – Cables bunched (6 cables bunch) and clipped direct to a nonmetallic surface ♦ Single core cables – Refer to Table 52-E5 (see Appendix F) Both HV and LV single core cables shall be arranged in the trefoil formation and shall have a distance of half cable diameter, ½De, from the side of the cable ladder or tray. Multiple runs of trefoils shall also have a space of separation of two cable diameter, 2De, as shown in the Diagram 2 below:
½De
De
2De
Diagram 2 – Single core cables installation All single core cables shall be bunched in trefoil formation, as shown in Diagram 2 above. Since there are less than six cables bunched together, the cable grouping correction factor is 1 applicable in one layer ladder here. However, correction factor 0.97/0.96 shall be applied in two (2)/three (3) layers of ladder respectively. ♦ Multicore cables- Refer to Table 52-E4 (see Appendix E) HV multicore cables shall be installed in a single layer and touching as shown in Diagram 3 below:
Diagram 3 – HV multicore cables installation The cable grouping correction factor is 1 applicable in one (1) layer of ladder for one cable only. Others grouping factor refer to table 52-E4 (see Appendix E).
Page 5 of 21
ELECTRCIAL CABLE SIZING
Page 6 of 21
LV multicore cables may not be installed in single layers and may grouped as bunches of 6 cables, as shown in Diagram 1. A grouping factor 0.73 shall be applied in three (3) layers and six (6) circuits requirement. •
As a result Derating Factor = ambient temperature correction factor × cable grouping correction factor =0.91 x 0.73 =0.66.

Other Frequency In our scope of work, cable for Electrical power system usually shall be 50Hz or 60Hz. High frequency will not be applicable and shall not be covered in this presentation.
1.5
Resistance Data Normally resistance of cable is provided at 200C by Vendor. The formula for actual resistance as a function of temperature is below. R=R0 (1+ α (t-200C) R0:
Resistance at t=200C
t
Conductor temperature 0C
α
0.00393 for copper
The resistances are based on the maximum cable operating temperature of 85oC (EPR) and 90oC (XLPE) for the different cable type codes selected. For example: Resistance at 200C of the 3C-4mm2 cables is 4.70 based on Draka Catalogue page 52 see Appendix A, so Resistance of the XLPE cable shall be R= 4.70 x (1+0.00393 x (900C-200C)) =4.975ohm/km 2.0

Cables for power distribution shall be sized based on the total current, steady state volt drop and short circuit capacity. Motor feeders shall be sized based on the total current, steady state and motor starting volt drops. The short circuit rating of 6.6kV Switchboard is 50kA and for feeders protected by circuit breakers, the cable short circuit duration is 0.4 second. 143 refer to table 43A – Values of K for common materials, for calculation of the effects of fault current – (Refer to appendix – B)

Cable 31-E-LP40137 from 415V Switchboard (SB-3103) to Fuel Gas Superheater A Thyristor Control Panel (ECP-1118A) •
The voltage drop will be calculated in two stages – from the MCC to the Fuel Gas Superheater Thyristor Panel (35m) and from the Thyristor Panel to the Fuel Gas Superheater A (125m).
•
Rated power for Fuel Gas Superheater A (E-1118A) = 385kW
•
Full load current = 535A (Vendor data)
•
The heater is protected by a breaker whose amp trip rating is 800A. Therefore the cable is sized to withstand 800A.

CONCLUSION For cable sizing, the following point shall be considered: o
Current Rating Correction of the Cable current ampacity shall be more than full current
o
Voltage drop Calculated voltage drop value shall be less than project requirement
o
Thermal short circuit capacity Calculated short circuit value shall be more than system’s short circuit rating
The largest cable size shall be used based on the above point. 6.0
