If you have to ask here, you shouldn't be trying to wire in a 20A compressor. You will require a special circuit for the voltage and current with an independent breaker.
Check your local code for the wire size or talk to a qualified electrician.
The size of conductor needed will be a #14. It should be copper and have an insulation factor of 90 degrees C. The fact that it is a three phase load does not enter into the calculation of the wire size.
A 10 mm cable is most commonly used for a 500 KVA transformer, 240 volt, 3 phrase. The size of the wire that is used in a transformer is based on the voltage.
AWG #3 copper.
480 Volt
As with any electrical installation, the wire size used depends on the expected maximum current the wire will carry. That cannot be determined by voltage alone.
5000 volt
A motor can be reckoned at 1.6 kVA per horse-power, so on a 415 v 3-phase suppy the current for 20 HP would be 45 amps. For continuous use the wire size should be 25 mm2
no
The recommended wire size for a 220 volt circuit according to the 220 volt wire size chart is typically 10 gauge wire for a circuit with a maximum of 30 amps.
It could if you don't get the terminals and motor wires on the correct terminals.

The recommended wire size for a 220-volt electrical circuit is typically 10-gauge wire.
To hook up a 10 hp compressor to a 3-phase power supply, connect the three hot wires from the power supply to the terminals L1, L2, and L3 on the compressor's motor starter. Connect the neutral wire (if required) to the N terminal. Lastly, connect the ground wire to the ground terminal. It's advisable to consult a professional electrician or the compressor's manual for specific instructions.
