I have a 185mm Al 11kV pair of cabl
(OP)
I have a 185mm Al 11kV pair of cables rated at around 330A each. Both are feeding an area with max loading 140A. However, two 3.3MVA 11kV capacitors (175A each)have been added to this dist. area and are used from time to time. What will the cable max rating be if this new load is so capacitivly reactive. I can't simply add the currents can I ? Any good rules of thumb here ?

Why so much capitance on the low loads? This amount of capitance with out off setting lagging power factor may cause voltage increase that may cause system overvoltage.
