hi all dears.
we have a AF compressor with a 450 kw electromotor with soft starter WEG. when we start the motor till to ramp up catches 2200 A for 20 second from netwok. we have atransformer with 20Kv and 2000KVA specification in our network .we connected this transformer with 6*1*240mm^2 cables (distance is less than 20 m) per each phase to a disjunctore and in asame way to main distribution panel (MDB) . we connect main distribution panel to compressor with 3*1*150 mm^2 per each phase . in the ramp up we have 40 volt drop till to MDB and 40 volt drop in our motor input .its strange ! i chechked my cable design and every connections .there was ok what do you think about this too high voltage drop ?? .
best regards
