Sometimes, I am responsibility to calculate cable size for offshore and onshore but I am lack in sizing conductor for Flexible Cable Power.
I want to design, purchase, and install flexible cable power 0.6/1 kV from Mobile Diesel Generator (400V 3Ph 50 Hz 0.8 PF 4 Poles ) to Power Junction Box at Offshore Platform. Approximately length is 50 M.
Some things I need to clarify is:
- What should I consider in addition to cable ampacity, derating factor temperature derating factor grouping/installation arrangement, and short circuit withstand capacity??
- What is the special derating factor for Flexible Cable Power??
- What kind of standard that state about Flexible cable power install in offshore??

Appreciate for your help.
