5.6 Cable sizing
Grundfos can supply submersible drop cables for
any type of installation.
Note: The cross-section of the submersible drop
cable must be large enough to meet the voltage
requirements specified in section 4.1 General.
The table values below are calculated from the
following formula:
where
q = Cross-section of submersible drop cable
[mm²].
I = Rated maximum current of the motor [A].
PF = 1.0.
L = Length of submersible drop cable [m].
ρ = Specific resistance: 0.02 [Ωmm²/m].
U = Nominal voltage [V].
ΔU = Voltage drop [%] = 4 %.
The 4 % voltage drop is according to IEC 3-64,
HD-384 Series.
The calculation gives the following maximum cable
lengths at a supply voltage of 240 V:
