To calculate the cable size for a 100 kW load, you would need to consider factors such as the voltage of the system, the type of cable insulation, the ambient temperature, and the installation method. The cable size is typically determined by the maximum current the cable will carry without overheating. Using the formula: Cable size (mm²) = (2 x L x I x R) / (√3 x V x cosΦ), where L is the cable length, I is the load current, R is the resistance of the cable, V is the voltage, and cosΦ is the power factor, you can calculate the appropriate cable size for the 100 kW load.

It depends on the voltage. Please restate the question and provide the voltage. In general, however, simply divide total power by KV to get KA. Remember the KWH is an integral, so you need to back calculate KW. If the month is a 30 day month, then KW is KWH / 30 / 1440. Then, if the load is star, simply divide by three; if the load is delta, divide by three and multiply by 1.732, the square root of 3. Example: 480 three phase running star. 8000 / 30 / 1440 is 185 amperes. 185 divided by 3 is 62 amperes per phase. For delta, that becomes 107 amperes.
There are several ways to calculate working load limit. One of these includes Minimum Breaking Load (MBL) divided by Working Load Limit (WLL) equals Working Load Limit (WLL).
Power dissipation in a resistor, or any other type of load, for that matter, is measured in watts and calculated as volts times amperes. It does not matter if the resistor is in a series or a parallel circuit, so long as the volts and amperes in the calculation is for that one resistor. Obviously, volts and amperes is distributed amongst the components of a circuit, and series vs parallel can have a significant affect on that distribution, so you will need to calculate or measure them on a case by case basis.
