I - CIRCUIT CHARACTERISTICS
A. Resistance and Reactance of Overhead Lines
Resistance depends primarily on the conductor size and type
of conductor used. Reactance depends not only on the
conductor size but also on the equivalent delta spacing between
the conductors. Accordingly, Table 1 gives the physical and
electrical characteristics for commonly used overhead conductor
sizes and types of conductors.
The conductor reactance may be separated into two parts the internal reactance of the conductor including the area
around the conductor of one' foot radius and the external
reactance of the conductor beyond the one foot radius. Hence,
the total reactance (X) per conductor is equal to the sum of the
two parts, or:
X Xl + X2 in ohms per 1000 feet
Xl ;: reactance of conductor at one foot
X = reactance of conductor beyond one foot

2 Selection
An assortment of insulated cable-connector modules is now
a... ailable to perform a variety of line and transformer switching
funct ions. Components can be arranged to provide great
flexibili t y of operation at costs w hich are only a fraction of
wha t equi ... alent housed switching equipment would be.
When connectors are used on t hree-phase appl ications, the
switched ...oltage must not exceed the rating of the connector .
On deltaconnected transformers or ungrounded wye systems,
the ra t ing of the connect or must be such as to handle the
switching of the l ine-to-line ...oltage.
On wyewye grounded transformer connections, connectors
rated linetoground voltage can, in genera l , be appl ied satis
fac t or ily . The remote possibility exists, however, that the 60Hz
reco ...ery ... oltage could reach a ...alue 1.73 times normal

kVA. where the loads have the same power factor, transformer
sizes are arrived at as follows:
Transfo:mer
7kVA
Smllil
2.9
9.9 kVA
lQkVA
2.9
2.9 kVA
3 kVA
These sizes are based on the assumption that the loads are
continuous, steadystate loads. In actual practice. this is seldom
the case. Some judgment can be exercised, depending upon the
knowledge of actual load conditions. as in the selection of
transformers for any other application.
5. Open-delta, Opendelta Banks
This connection is similar to openwye, opendelta except
that the transformers are connected phasetophase instead of
phaseloneutral. Selection of large and small transformer ratings
can be made t he same way.
6. Wy ewy e Banks
A bank of wyewye transformers should not be used unless
the system is fourwire. It is important to remember that the
primary neutral of the transformer bank should be tied firmly
to the system neutral. If this is not done, excessive voltages may
develop on the secondary side.
7. Caution
Singlephase, selfprotected transformers should /Jot be used
to supply threephase, fourwire, closeddel ta circuits serving
combined threephase power and single'phase lighting loads. If
the secondary breaker in the lighting phase opens, the lighting
phase is still supplied with 240 volts. With the breaker open,
however, there is nothing to hold the lowvoltage neutral at the
midpoint between the 240 volts. The voltage betweef) each
phase to neu tral will depend on the relative i mpedance of the
loads connected on either side of the 120/240vol t circuit. Since
lhese are rarely equal. the lam ps on one side will probably burn
out from overvoltage.
D. Autotransformers
A considerable saving in cost may often be effected by using
autotransformers instead of twowinding transformers. When it
is desired to effect a comparatively small voltage change. or
where both voltages are low, an autotransformer can usually be
used as successfully as a twowinding transformer.
Autotransformers should not. except under special con
ditions. be used w here the difference between the high voltage
and low-voltage ratings is great. because the occurrence of
g"ounds at certain points w ill sllbject the insulation on the
lowvoltage circuit to the same stress as the high-voltage circuit.
Auto transformers are rated on the basis of their kVA output
rather than the transformer kVA. Efficiencies. regulation and
other electrical characteristics are also based on output rating.

Zl '" line to neutral impedance in ohms. or the impedance of
one conductor to the point of fault.
B. Transformer Impedance
It is frequently necessary to take into account the effect of
stepup or stepdown transformer banks. The impedance of
deltawye, wyedelta. and deltadelta transformer banks should
be combined directly with conductor impedances in calculating
shortcircuit currents. The transformer impedance, which is
usually given in percent, will have to be converted to ohms
before it is combined wi th the line impedance. This can be done
with the relation:
Zn.. 10E2
ZTlI -- _"kVA
''''_
where:
ZT n '" transformer impedance in ohms
ZT % transformer impedance in percent
E - linetoline voltage in kV
kVA = rating of the three phase transformer bank
D. Effect of Offset
The magnit ude of the shortcircuit current, as determined
from voltage and impedance values, does not necessar ily
represent the rms value of the current for the first few cycles,
because of the fact that the current wave may be offset or
unsymmetr ical with respect to its zero axis. The rms value of
the first half-cycle increases as the amount of offset increases.
For constan t reactance circuits the max imum value which the
rms of the offset current wave can attain with respect to the rms
of the symmetrical current wave is a funct ion. among other
things, of the reactance/ resistance ratio of the circuit up to the
point of fault.
tn the Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical
Engineers (Vol. 67, 1948) paper entitled Simplified Calcularion of Fault Currents, are the various multiplying factors to
be used with the currents calculated by the formu lae above.
These are the basis of the values shown in Table 9.
When applying circuit breakers, circuit reclosers, distribution
expulsion arresters and fuses. the formulae for the type of fault
which will give the highest value of rms symmetrical current
should be used. Then the multiplying factor in Table 9 should
be applied to determine the rms current which should be
compared with the rating of the device.
T he relationship shown by the curve in Fig. 7 gives the valucs
that can be used in calculating the maximum rms value of the
first half-cycle of f ault current. This curve can be used instead
of Table 9 for checking the suitability of the interrUPting rating
of fuse cutouts and reclosers when the circuit constants of a
particular installation are know n.

E. Per Unit
Perunit quantities can be used to great advantage in
det ermining curren ts, voltages, etc . throughout a threephase
system in w hich there are many circuits connected by tran s
formers operating at different voltages. One of the principal
advantages of the per-unit method is that when expressed as per
unit, based upon nominal circuit voltages. impedances can be
combined directly without regard for actual transformer turn
ratios w hen calculating short -circui t currents in complicated
networks or systems of more than one voltage . Using percent
has t he same advantages as perunit. The use of perunit is easier
than using percent because it eliminates the introduction and
omission of the factor 100 at appropriate stages. Any quantity
in t he percent system divided by 100 is the corresponding
quantity in the per-unit system and viceversa.
The first step in determining shortcircuit currents by the
perun it method is t o choose a convenient kVA base. Since the
various transformers, generators, and synchronous motors in a
system will have a reactance value expressed on its own kVA
rating. these valu es must be converted to the chosen k V A base.
18
""
Threephase
kVA base
(1000)
After the system impedances have all been put on the chosen
kVA base. they can be added up in series or parallel , just as
ohms would be, to determine the equivalent impedance from
source to fault. Dividing one by the equivalent impedance gives
the number of times normal kVA (or the corresponding current)
which will flow from the source to t he fault. This '"number of
times normal'" multiplied by the chosen kVA base will give the
threephase shortcircuit kVA (or the corresponding current) .

used:
% volts drop = kVA fR cosO + X sinO)
10 kV2
where kVA is threephase kVA, R and X are the total resistance
and reactance, respectively, of one conductor in ohms and kV is
linetoline kilovolts. For single'phase circuits, kVA is single
phase kVA, R and X are total values for both conductors, and
kV is the actual single'phase kilovolts.
It can be seen from the vector diagram in Fig. 12 that both
formulas are approximate, but are close enough for practical
purposes.
In this diagram, 0 is shown as the powedactor angle at the
station end of the feeder because, on most distribution feeders,
this is the only location at which the power factor of the load
can be measured.
To assist in the application of this formula, Table 11 has
been prepared. This table gives the values of ,sines, tangents, and
angles which correspond to cosine or powerfactor values from
1.0 to O.
In actual practice, loads are usually distributed over the
feeder rather t han concentrated at one end. When t his is the
case, simpl ifying assumptions can often be made. These are
shown in Fig. 13. For instance, if a load is uniformly distributed
over the feeder, the drop to the end of the tine is the same as if
the to tal load were concentrated at a point half way out on the
feeder . Th is is mathematically correc t for a very large number of
loads. For a small number of distributed loads the error may be
large. When the load can be divided into a number of large
concentrated loads distributed along the tines, it is possible to
divide the line into the sections between loads for calculation
purposes, and to consider each section individually w ith the
load w hich it carries.
If there is distributed load on a line and it is desired to find
the voltage drop to some point on the line, the following
formula will be helpful :

2. Singlephase Problems
The voltage drop f or singlephase circuits wi th two identical
conductors can be obtained in a similar manner using t he same
tables. The only difference is, in obtaining t he number of
ampere feet multiply the amperes per phase by twice the length
of circuit in fee t .

1. Type
Several different types of equipment are used to maintain
voltage levels throughout a system. This equipment can be
grouped into three major classes:
1. Source voltage control; generating station bus voltage
control.
2. Voltage ratio control.
a. l oad tap changing transformers
b. Step voltage regulators
c. Induction voltage regulators
3. Ki lovar control
a. Synchronous condensers
b. Switched capacitors
The l ypes and sizes of the equipment chosen depend upon
the nature of the load and the characteristics of the system.
It should be recognized that the easiest and least expensive
met hod of system voltage control is by variation of the

C. Light Flicker
Steady-state voltage conditions withi n close limits can be
attained by the use of shunt capacitors and feeder voltage
regulating equipment with properly adjusted line drop compen
sators. However, feeder regulating equipment w i!! not compen
sate for instantaneous voltage fluctuations caused by sudden
applications of low power factor loads, such as produced by
motors during starting. The solid lines in Fig. 24 show curves,
based upon the average of results obtained in several investiga
tions, of visible and irritating voltage fluctuations on lighting
circuits, which are plotted against the frequency of their
occurrence. T hese data were compiled in the 1930's. Since then,
some electr ic power utilities have found that for today's
conditions flicker lim its can be liberalized with success. The
dotted lines in Fig. 24 show the limits set by two utilities.
References are given in the figure. This flicker information is
appropriate for secondar y systems.

This relation is plotted as Curve B in Fig. 33.
To show how this curve can be used, assume that a ponion
of a system is operat ing near rated capacity . For example, let
this portion be worth S100 per kW and determine the most
economical operating facto r when capacitors are installed in the
load area . Capacitors can be installed for approximately S8 per
kVar. This gives a capacitor cost to the system value ratio (e/s)
of O.OS. From Fig. 33. this corresponds to II 0 .995 power factor.
That is, in this example where system capacity is needed, its use
for transportation of kilovars cannot be justified below 99.5
percent power factor.
2. Voltage Rise
The equation of percent voltage rise due to application of a
shunt capacitor, neglecting line resistance is:

3. Reduction of Losses
The resistance loss in a circuit is equal to the product of the
resistance and the current squared . The current , in turn, is equal
to the rss (root of the sum of the squares) value of the reactive
and active components of current. As the loss is a function of
the current squared, it follows that the loss due to the two
components of current may be reckoned separately . Thus,
tOlalloss RI( I cos 01 2 0+- (I sin O)2)
'= active'current losses + reactivecurrent losses
This concept in figuring losses is useful, because the
act ivecurrent losses are no t effected by the power factor and
represent the absolute min imum to which the total circuit losses
may be reduced. As the reactivecurrent losses are the only ones
that are effected by power-factor improvement, it is suggested
that these losses be dealt wi th as a separate enti ty, when figu ring
loss reductions from the application of shunt capacitors . This
ignores the loss reduction which accompanies the higher system
voltage caused by capacitors.
In a practical case, the total energy loss - that is, the kWh r
loss over a given period - is the figure that is usually of major
importance. Therefore, the load cycle, the daily load pattern,
must be considered in order to get an accurate pictu re. By
dividing the load-current requi rement into its active and reactive
components, as suggested, the amount of fi xed shunt capacitors
required to reduce the to tal energy loss to a minimum for a
given load pattern can be readily determined. This value turns
out to be the average value of the kVar requirement. These

The arresters at the cable junction will limit the surge voltage
level at tha t point to the protective level of the arresters, but the
su rge passing the arresters at the cable junction can doub le at
the switchgear under certain conditions unless the length of
cable between the cable junction and the switchgear is
sufficiently short to limit it to some lower value_ Attenuation
and disto rtion of the surge voltage wave in the cables is
negligible for most of the cable lengths used _
The curves in Fig_ 4 1 show the maximum permissible cable
lengths between the cable junction and the metal -clad switchgear for different values of front-of-wave impulse sparkover
voltage at the equipment sufficiently below the insulation
strength of the switchgear to allow omission of the arresters in
the metal-clad equipment. These curves are based on a travelingwave analysis assuming a wave front of 500 kilovolts per
microsecond arriving at the junction of the overhead line (surge
impedance of 400 ohms) and the continuous-metallic-sheath
cable (surge impedance of 30 ohms!. The velocity of propagation of the surge in the cable is assumed to be 500 feet per
microsecond. The maximum surge voltage at the switchgear is
determined by the arrester sparkover value rather than by the
I A dro p. This is the case for modern arresters and for the
discharge currents encountered in practice as shown in Table 23.

the riser pole only , or the need for arresters at the riser pole,
plus arresters at the open tie point.
By comparison of Column 3 with Column 7 and comparison
of Column 4 with Column 6, this table shows how a 7.2kV
transformer having 95 kV BI L and 110kV chopped wave
strength can be protected by installing a 9kV di rectconnected
arrester at the riser pole only.
When the system operating voltage is 24.9kV (or two times
12.47kV) an 18-kV arrester is required. The table indicates that
the arrester spark over voltage and discharge voltage charac
teristics of this arres ter are also doubled, but the transformer
BI L has only increased from 95 kV to 125 kV and the chopped
wave strength has increased from 100 kV to 144 kV. Thus , for
distribution systems above 13 .0 kV, a distributiontype arrester
is required both at the riser pote and at the end of the line.
These additional arresters can be eliminated by selection of
an intermediate or stationclass arrester for the overhead
junction which has a spark over value such that ; even doubled, it
will be within the safe withstand capabilities of the equipment
on the ci rcuit. These lowsparkover arresters are available and
their characteristics are compared to those of conventional
dis t ribution arresters in Table 25. This tabulation shows that ,
while conventional arresters' provide adequate protection in
most cases, 10w-1;parkover arresters provide better protection in
some instances, and a more acceptable margin of safety in
others_
Intermediate and station arresters are included in the
tabulation because equipment withstand levels are threatened
by surges passed by conventional and even low spark over
arresters at very high discharge currents. In these cases, station
or intermediate class arresters are necessary to hold the
sparkover and discharge voltages to a doubled wave level below
the equi pment and cable BIL.
6. Overhead Line Protectio n
Increased attention is being given to the protect ion of
overhead distribution li nes against insulator flashover. This can
be markedly reduced by locati ng GE distribution arresters at
strategic points along the line . Surge arresters minimize system

OVERCURRENT PROTECTION OF DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
Relays equipped with all instantaneous attachment can be
connected in the breaker control circuit to provide one
instantaneo us trip and then subsequent tripping in accordance
with the setting of the inverse. veryinverse or extremely inverse
time-delay characteristics.
The initial instantaneous operation of the breaker will
prevent damage to fuses during transient faults wi th a resulting
improvement in service continuity and elimination of restoration expense. With a permanent fault beyond the fuse, however,
the time-delay opening of the circuit breaker will cause the fuse
to blow and isolate the faulted section before the breaker
operates the second time or locks open.

The extremely inverse time relay has characteristics approximating source and load side fuses (GE$-7005). It is particularly
suitable for coordination wit h slow fuse links on the load side.
Also, this type of rela y provides a means for picking up load
after an extended outage where the inrush currents may cause
other types to trip.

3. Coordinatio n Requirements
Characteristics of branch or feeder sectionali zing devices
should be determined by coordination with the next protective
device farther out on the line . Based on the short-circuit current
at the location of the protective device farther out Dn the line,
the mini mum size of the source protective device can be
determined by a comparison of the time-current curves or from
published coordination charts for the particular devices being
used.
Publication GET 1751 , Application Manual for Overcurrent
Protection for Distribution Systems, tells how to select and
coordinate overcurrent protecti ve devices and gives necessary
data including coordination charts and GET numbers for the
time-current characteristic curves for GE primary fuses, auto
matic drcuit reclosers, and circuit breaker relays.
Recloser-relay Coordination
Relays of each feeder should be adjusted so they can protect
the circuit to a point beyond the first recloser in the main
feeder, but with enough time delay to be selective with the
recloser during any or all of the operations within the complete
recloser cycle, as illustrated in Fig. 46.
It is a good rule-of-thumb that there will be a possible lack of
selectivity if the operating time of the relay at any current is less
than twice the time-delay characteristic of the recloser. The
method of calculating the selectivity is fully described in
G ET1751.
Recloser-fuse Coordinatjon
When a correctly rated fuse link is applied and properly
coordinated with a recloser it should not be melted or even
damaged by a temporary fault beyond it, i.e ., the recloser
should open the circuit on instantaneous operations one, two,
ar three times, depending on its adjustment, without damaging
the fuse li nk. On a permanent fault, the fuse link on the source
side of the fault should blow on the third or fourth (time-delay)
operation of the recloser. The fault will be isolated by the fuse,
and the recloser will reset automatically, restoring service
everywhere except beyond the blown fuse. Figure 47 illustrates
these principles.
The recloser should never lock out on a permanent fault
beyond the fuse if the fuse has been properly coordinated with
the recloser.

variables as preheating by load and to avoid melting of the
fusible wire, but not the strain wire of the fuse link.
The maximum current to which the fuse link of Curve A will
protect the fuse link of Curve B is indicated at D, the current at
which Curve A crosses Curve C.
The maximum current to which the fuse link of Curve A will
protect the fuse link of Curve B' is shown as E. This is the
current at which Curve C' crosses the 0.8 cycle line indicating
that it will be melted at this and ilt higher currents before a
smaller fuse link can protect it.
B. Secondary Circuits
When the impedance of iI secondary circuit extending from a
distribution transformer limits the fault current to a value at
which the primary fuse does not afford the desired protection,
the use of a fuse in the secondary circuit may be advisable.
Secondary faults, however, are considered rare and are usually
self-clearing, hence fault protection is usually provided by the
transfor mer primary link or the secondary breaker in a
self-protected transformer.

and water heater. The curves designat ed 4.8 and 7.2 kVA
represent homes with different degrees of air conditioning. The
remain ing curves correspond to homes with electric heati ng.
B. Load Factor
The load fact or is defined as the ratio of average power
demand over a stipulated period of time, to the peak or
maximum demand for that same interval. One convenient and
frequently used method for det er mining load fac t or is to use a
kilowatt-hour meter w it h a 3Dminute max imumdemand
attachment. The kilowatthours and t he max imum demand for
any particular period are noted, and the load factor calculated
from these readings is simply the average number of kilowatts
divided by the m;Jximum demand.
Analysis of fie ld data obtained during 1962 from 55 electr ic
util.ities indicates t hat average load facto r measured at the
distribution transformer is 26.6%. Results relating to loss factor,
power facto r and other load characteri stics have also been
obtained from this basic data. *

somewhat less (75 percent to 80 percent) t han the value given
above, because of the effect of the ground return in parallel
with the neutral conductor.
Secondaries for underground systems can be designed in a
manner similar to tha t outlined above, except of course, using
cable charac teristics for making calcu tations rather than open
w ire. Many utilities are finding i t less compl icated and more
convenien t to omit the use of secondaries in underground
systems and use instead individual service drops from the
t ransformer to consumer served by the distribution transformer.
Line Loss
C.
B. Transformer Losses
For a aiven voltage, the transformer no load loss is independent of load. The load loss wil l vary as the square of the
current. The load loss (corrected to ANSI reference temperature
of 8SC) corresponding to fullload currerit is obtained from
Table 27 as the difference between total and no!oad losses.
When a transformer is operating at rated load and voltage,
the load loss and noload loss can be easily determined.
Occasionally, it is necessary to estimate these losses w hen the
transformer is operating above or below rated voltage. To
determine approximately the losses of a 60hertz transformer
when operating at other than ra t ed voltage, the losses at rated
voltage should be multiplied by the factors given i n Table 28. It
should be borne in mind that these correction factors are only
appro ximate, because the variation with the varying volta.ge
~pends largely upon the quality of steel and the density at
which the transfor mers are operat ed.
