Short Circuit Current Calculation

Now, Short circuit power MVA at secondary of TR Short circuit current at secondary of TR Short circuit power MVA at 3.3KV Bus Short circuit current at 3.3KV Bus Generator #1 short circuit power MVA Generator #2 short circuit power MVA Generator #3 short circuit power MVA Overall generator short circuit power Short circuit current at generators = = = = = = = = = 38.961 MVA 6.817 KA 36.871 MVA 6.451 KA 5.359 MVA 5.363 MVA 5.367 MVA 16.089 MVA 11.201 KA

So for calculation of power house, we have to consider maximum short circuit current in 3.3KV network. Therefore, 11.201 KA is maximum short circuit current. and all equipment short circuit current rating minimum 11.201 KA required.
