Cable Sizing With Clarifications1111111

This document provides sizing calculations for cable C-SMSB.40.G.1 which runs from the main distribution board MDB.1 to switchboard SMSB.40.G.1. It calculates the design current, selects a 630A rated cable based on ampacity tables, and verifies that the cable meets protection and voltage drop criteria.
