G. Rizzoni, Principles and Applications of Electrical Engineering Problem solutions, Chapter 2Analysis:The cable must meet two requirements:1. The conductor current rating must be greater than the rated current of the motor at full load. Thisrequires AWG #14.2. The voltage drop due to the cable resistance must not r<strong>edu</strong>ce the motor voltage below its minimumrated voltage at full load.KVL :R−VR−V+ I+ R110 V −105V=7.103 AMaxGC1RC=dGC 2+ VM −FL1RV=RC1C1GRC=d2−VI+ V+ VM −MinM −FLM −MinM −Min+ V+ I= 703.9 mΩ=12=[ 703.9 mΩ]150 mRC 2M −FL= 0RC 2= 0Ω= 2.346 mmTherefore, AWG #8 or larger wire must be used.________________________________________________________________________Solution:Problem 2.45Known q<strong>ua</strong>ntities:Layout of the building shown in Figure P2.45; characteristics of the cables; rated voltage of the generator;total electrical load in the building.Find:The minimum AWG gauge conductors which must be used in a rubber insulated cable.Analysis:The cable must meet two requirements:1. The conductor current rating must be greater than the rated current of the motor at full load. Thisrequires AWG #4.2.
