Answer / mbao richie
simply means the bus rated at that fault level can
withstand the electrical pressure(voltage) for which it is
designated for that period of time

Dear friends,
in the above calculations people consider the % impedence
but they are not calculate the fault impedence to get MVA
of transformer.

Answer / jigar shah
suppose transformer (11 KV/433) is of 1000 KVA & %
impedance is 4 .LT side Fault level can be calculated as
below :
KVA = 1.732 X V X I X Cos Phi - PF assumed : 0.95
LT Rated current (I) = (1000 * 1000)/(1.732*433*0.95)
= 1481 A
Fault current on LT side = FLC * 100/(% impedance)
= 1481 * 100/5
= 29.62 KA

Dear Friends, I have a 500KVA transformer supplying whole factory having 3 phase and single phase mixed loads. Power room has ammeters connected via CTs for individual phase. Now I know that readings shown on meter for each phase say R,Y and B are line currents. But when I want to know the total on transformer do I need to add the currents of all three phases readings shown on meter or value for anyone phase will give me the correct power load on transformer for that point of time. 2. If ammeter shows unbalanced readings for R,Y, B phases say 150, 250 and 300 respectively so can I assume that 150A i.e average of 3 will be the 3phase load currents and remaining will be 1phase currents. Please clarify my doubt.
