Fault calculations is very important in Electrical Protection, because it help you select the appropriate equipment rating to protect your network, determining the amount of fault current will guide you through the selection of current transformers, circuit breakers and other protection apparatus.
In this tutorial we see how to calculate the fault current on the transformer primary in case of a short circuit on its secondary terminal, using per unit system to find that short circuit current.
The per unit (pu) system is a method used in power system analysis to simplify and normalize calculations by expressing quantities in relative terms rather than absolute values. In the per unit system, physical quantities such as voltage, current, power, impedance, and reactance are expressed as a ratio or percentage of a specified base value.
Explore the concept of Transformer Primary Short Circuit MVA in this detailed tutorial. Designed for electrical engineers and power system analysts, this video explains the significance of short-circuit MVA ratings in transformer design and protection.
Learn how to calculate and interpret primary short-circuit MVA values, understand their implications on transformer sizing and protection coordination, and explore practical examples in power system analysis. Whether you're designing new systems or optimizing existing ones, understanding transformer short-circuit MVA ratings is crucial for ensuring reliable and safe operation of electrical networks.
