Abstract

Parallel cables used with the aim of meet growing energy demand at the energy systems which operates via cable. To use of parallel cables may bring out imbalance among the cables. This event, known as the current distribution imbalance, cause problems such as over heating on the high current-carrying cables, wear out of insulation and reduced life expectancy. In this study, effects of cable configurations by changing phase sequences and layouts are investigated via data obtained from a data center which recently goes a major upgrade. The cable configuration which has the most uniform current distribution is determined.
