Without knowing the nominal voltage, you cannot determine the load current and, therefore, cannot determine the cable size.
<<>>
The sizing of cables or conductors is based on the amperage that the conductor can safely carry. The formula for amperage is I = W/E. Amps = 5000/Volts. With out a voltage stated an answer to this question can not be answered. When you calculate the amperage, re-ask your question for a conductor size for a given amperage.

For 100kw which cable size is good and how to find out cable size?
100 kw is the power drawn by the load. to calculate the cable size you need to know the voltage. From that you can calculate the current. this decides the cable size. for example if the voltage is 400Volts then the current flowing in the circuit when the load is 100 KW will be 250 amps. (100,000/400). for 250 amps to flow with out causing excessive heating of the cable the cross sectional area of the copper cable should be 150 sq mm.for a round cross section the diameter will be roughly 15mm.
What is cable size for 275 kw gen-set?
The cable size for a 275 kW generator set typically depends on factors such as the voltage level, distance from the generator to the load, and the type of insulation used. For a three-phase system at 400V, a common cable size might be around 95-120 mm² (copper) or 150-185 mm² (aluminum) to ensure safe operation and minimize voltage drop. Always consult local electrical codes and guidelines, and consider using a professional electrician for accurate sizing based on specific installation conditions.

What cable size is needed for 415VAC 3 Phase 400kVA generator to a load 50meters away?
As example, at 380V the generator produces 685A per phase. Therefore you will require 2 x 120mm2 cables per phase. (1 x 120mm2 cable will support 365A per phase). In total you will require approximately 1/2km of cable to cover the 50m run between the generator and the ATS panel/Load. i.e. 5 phases in total - 2 x 50m cables per phase.
Could you Calculate cable size for 100 kw load?
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.
What cable is needed to go from a generator to the electrical supply?
The cable that is used to connect from the generator is based on the size in kW's of the generator and the generator's breaker size rated in amps. It usually is a flexible cab-tire 4 wire cable if the generator is a portable type. If it is a stationary generator is has to be wired with a flexible conduit so as not to transmit vibration from the generator to the conduit system.
