The choice of the cross-sectional area of the power cable is related to the investment, the loss and voltage quality of the line, and the service life of the cable. If the cross-sectional area of the power cable is too small, the voltage quality will drop, the line loss will be too large, and the initial investment will be too high. Therefore, the appropriate cross-sectional area should be ...
