3. DESIGN CONSIDERATION
3.1 System Voltage
For 13.8kV fed Loads, rated voltage of cable shall be 12/20kV.
(Refer 15-SAMSS-502, Table-1)
For 5.1kV fed Loads, rated voltage of cable shall be 12/20kV.
(Refer 15-SAMSS-502, Table-1)
For 0.48kV fed Loads, rated voltage of cable shall be 0.6/1kV.
(Refer SAES-P-104, Section-5.3)
3.2 Criteria for Cable Selection
The sizing of power cable shall be based on the following
considerations
Current carrying capacity of cables shall be in accordance to
the respective load current.
Voltage drop during steady state operating conditions.
Voltage drop during motor startup conditions. (Applicable for
motorized loads only)
Short circuit withstand capacity
For VFD operated motors with locked rotor amps of 110% of full
load current is considered. (Refer 16-SAMSS-512 Clause-8.1.2)
For LV motors with DOL, starting current 600% of load current is
taken into account with a power factor 0.2 during starting.
3.3 Design Conditions
Outdoor Exposed to Sun (for exposed cables, cables in conduit,
and cables in uncovered cable trays)
Design Temperature : 60 C (Refer SAES-P-104 Section12.2)
Outdoor Shaded (for exposed cables, cables in conduit, and
cables in cable trays in the shade)
Design Temperature : 50 C (Refer SAES-P-104 Section12.2)

Indoor Air-conditioned
Design Temperature : 35 C (Refer SAES-P-104 Section12.2)
Soil Temperature
Design Temperature : 40 C (Refer SAES-P-104 Section12.2)
Therefore, the Temperature Conditions applied for CO2 Project
shall be as follows:
- Aboveground Cable Installation : 50 0C
- Underground Cable Installation : 40 0C
3.4 Current Carrying Capacity of Power Cables
The power cables for Uthmaniyah shall be laid in cable trays
along the main cable route considering single layer laying
following correction factors as per cable vendor catalogues shall
be applicable.
Ambient temperature correction factor
Grouping correction factor
The power cables from main cable tray to the respective
individual load shall be buried directly; following correction
factors shall be applicable:
Ground temperature correction factor
Depth of laying
Soil thermal resistivity correction factor
Cable grouping correction factor
Furthermore, based on the above correction factors the ampacity
of each respective cable based on cable vendor catalogue. (Refer
Attachment-1)
3.5 Average Earth Thermal Resistivity
Maximum average earth thermal conductivity values from the
thermal conductivity test report is 0.32 w/mK. Calculated thermal
resistivity will be 1/0.32 = 3.125Km/watt.
As per SES-P-104, CL. 12.3 If the soil thermal resistivity value
is more than 120 c-cm/watt, than calculated value of thermal
resistivity need to be followed

5.1 For 13.8kV VCB Feeder For VFD
Maximum Short Circuit Current of 13.8kV system is 42kA rms and
the total operating time for backup protection of VCB is 0.572
second.
Therefore, Conductor Cross Sectional Area (A) in mm2 is equal
to:
Therefore, the minimum conductor cross sectional area applicable
for 13.8kV for motor feeder shall be 300 mm2. Furthermore, the
selected minimum cable size satisfies the requirements of
SAES-P-104, Table-1.
5.2 For 480V Feeders
Maximum short circuit current for LV system is 65KA. The total
operating time of ACB including relay operating time is 0.18 second
& 10% margin. Therefore conductor cross section area (A) in mm2
is:
Hence minimum conductor size for LV CB feeder cable shall be 240
mm2 for other out going feeder from MCC minimum size of 4 mm2 is
followed as given in SAES-P-104, Table-1.

5.3 Calculations for verification of steady state voltage drop
criteria
The steady state voltage drop criteria verification shall be
based on para-3.6 which is in accordance to the requirements of
Saudi-Aramco engineering standards. A typical calculation example
is provided as follows:
Where:
Vd : Acceptable steady state voltage drop along power cable in %
of Nominal Voltage (Refer para-3.6)
Vr : Nominal Voltage in (V)
I : Full Load Current in (A)
L : Cable Length in (m)
R,X : Cable Resistance and Reactance (/ km)
cos : Power Factor of Motor
5.3.1 Example for HV Power Cable
For a given load current, voltage, power factor and acceptable
voltage drop Vd (As per para-3.6), the maximum length of the
selected power cable shall be:
Therefore,
For a given load current, voltage, power factor and acceptable
voltage drop Vd (As per para-3.6), the maximum length of the
selected power cable shall be:

Typical Resistance R (/km) = 0.343 (For 3C-70Sq. mm XLPE
Insulated)*
Typical Reactance X (/km) = 0.12 (For 3C-70Sq. mm XLPE
Insulated)*
Therefore,
Conclusion: The above mentioned length is the max cable length
for which the 3C-70Sq. mm cable can be laid for a load of 1000kW
provided the voltage drop along the power cable is under 7.5% as
per the defined criteria, thus fulfilling the requirements of
SAES-P-100.
5.3.2 Example for LV Power Cables
The maximum allowable length of power cable as per the given
load and cable data is calculated by utilizing the following
formulation:
For a given load current, voltage, power factor and acceptable
voltage drop Vd (As per para-3.6), the maximum length of the
selected power cable shall be:
Nominal Voltage = 480V
Load = 30kW motor
Load Current (IL) = 50.8A
Pf = 0.78
Typical Resistance R (/km) = 0.4940 (For 3C-50Sq. mm XLPE
Insulated)*

Insulated)*

*Resistance data taken from Saudi Cable Vendor.
Therefore,
Conclusion: The above mentioned length is the max cable length
for which the 3C-50Sq. mm cable can be laid for a load of 30kW
provided the voltage drop along the power cable is under 5% as per
the defined criteria, thus fulfilling the requirements of
SAES-P-100.
5.4 Verification of Voltage drop criteria in terms of motor
starting
For motor starting the voltage at the terminals of the motor
being started should not drop below 85% of the nominal voltage the
criteria has been verified in each of the selection table using the
following formulation:
Where,
Vds : Acceptable voltage drop criteria during motor starting
Vr : Rated Voltage in (V)
I : Full Load Current in (A)
L : Cable Length in (m)
R,X : Cable Resistance and Reactance (/km)
cos : Power Factor of Motor (Assumed to be 0.2 during
starting)
Special Note
Voltage drop verification of cable for the motor starting
interval is carried out considering 600% full load amps and a power
factor of 0.2 for DOL; however for VFD 110% of full load amps and a
power factor of 0.2 are considered to simulate the starting
conditions. Furthermore, the detailed simulation for motor starting
is provided in etap simulated motor starting analysis.

5.5 Verification of Ampacity
Ampacity value given in vendor catalogue (Attachment 1-1)
standard operating condition were corrected as per the site
condition & the installation methods defined in Attachment
1-2.
Following condition is verified for each power cable:
I derated cable ampacity I Load Current
Where,
I derated cable ampacity = I standard cable ampacity (Refer
Attachment 1-1) x Correction Factors (Refer Attachment 1-2)
6. CONCLUSION
This report is prepared to clarify the cable sizing basis for
Inlet & Gas Treatment Project application. Saudi Cable Vendor
was selected for supplier of LV & MV cables. The cable
ampacity, installation method and cable derating factors are
provided by Cable Vendors.
