Cable Size for 7.5kW Motor in Malaysia

The document provides information for selecting a power cable for a 7.5 kW motor that draws 14.8 A at full load and 188.8 A during starting. It lists various cable sizes with their electrical characteristics and determines that a 3C x 4 SQMM cable is suitable, as it meets requirements for steady state and starting voltage drops while keeping the current draw below the cable's rating.
