which fault current is maximum: 3 phase short circuit, LG, LL or LLG?? why?? in one of the problems that i have solved, 3 phase short circuit current on an unloaded generator came out to be less than the LG fault current. can anybody please explain why.

how to determine the cable size...pls explain me with the formula taking particular load....does the factors like impedance & short circuit rating influence the cable size, if so how....

-What shall be short circuit current of LV switchgear for a 1000 kva, 11.415kv, 3 phase tranformer with 5% reactance.

1682


following are the questions asked in interviews: 1) Considering the short circuit fault, which switchgear is preferable, SFU OR MCCB? Which operates faster? whicg one is popular in Indian Market and why? 2)Define SCPD. What is type2 coodination? 3)Why the contactor rating is higher for the fuseless selection than for fuse selection? whether the ratinf of SFU or MCCB remains the same in both the cases? 4)If the HP rating is known then can you calculate the ratings of L.V Switchgear(SFU/MCCB, contactor, OLR) without using the selection chart?

To prove the capacity of a 10MVA transforemr with 6.5% impedance by a short circuit test how much power is needed to inject an impedance voltage if we have to arrive for its rated current?

why do you add the load short circuit impedance when considering short circuit amperage. It seems that you should only consider supply. If you need to consider loads and you don't know what loads are to be added , what would be a good sub-transient reactance rating for the loads?
