Per the national electrical code article nema 392 9 b cable tray fill calculations and cable tray sizing calculations will be computed as follows.
It is based on cable type insulation type and the cable installation method.
Here voltage drop for 70 sq mm cable 5 8 is higher than define voltage drop 5 so either select higher size of cable or increase no of cable runs.
Cable are laying in single layer in cable tray.
If we select 2 runs than voltage drop is 2 8 which is within limit 5 but to use 2 runs of cable of 70 sq mm cable is not economical so it s necessary to use next higher size of cable.
