Calculating volt drop, cable selection and mcb selection on an 3kw motor

[daiplayer]

ok here i go :

For deign current : 36.1 A

In : 40A
...................

Ok..... here goes...

Ca : 35 oc...... : factor of 0.94....table 4b1 ?
Cg : 0.82........table 4C1 ???

so ...It = 50.8 A ...????

Im lost as to where i go from here....

I can do the volt drop calc....but i cant suss how to find the correct table for the cable selection ?

Thanks

3 phase design current = power / (sqaure root of 3) x Uo (nominal voltage)
