Discuss Volt drop three phase in the Electrical Wiring, Theories and Regulations area at ElectriciansForums.net

When calculating volt drop on three phase, I can't remember if I my calculation is using the total current on all three phases or just each individual one.
So each phase at 400v is 3.8A. My calculation was 2.5mm minimum. A three phase motor run in SWA. The run is 200M underground.
