What is the cable size for 90 kw motor?

Depends upon the voltage. The formula for amperage or (wire size) is Watts / Voltage. If the voltage is 220 volts, then the amperage would be over 400 amps. This would require a large wire size to run it. If it were 440 volts, the amperage would be 1/2 or 200 amps. That would require a smaller wire size. As the voltage goes up, the amperage goes down. At a thousand volts, the amperage would only be 90 amps. A wire gauge or size of a #2 would carry 90 amps for small distances.


In a residential 200amp service is 100 amps the maximum that each of the two phase conductor can transmit or can they both carry 200 amps?

Each hot leg to the neutral wire of the service has the ampacity of 200 amps, that is why 3/0 wire is required. A 3/0 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 210 amps.


What wire size will carry 50 amps 200 ft 220 voltage?

For a 220V circuit carrying 50 amps over 200 ft, you would need a wire size of at least 6 AWG (American Wire Gauge). This size wire will ensure that there is minimal voltage drop over the distance and that the wire can safely carry the current without overheating.
