Title :
Simplified Calculation of Fault Currents
Abstract :
A simplified procedure for the calculation of short-circuit currents was presented in an earlier report.1 This procedure, outlined in this article, has been given trial use for over a year and has been found to be generally satisfactory for the purpose intended. Accordingly, it is now recommended for general use by the industry as a simplified method of approximating the magnitude of fault currents.
