Design rules Short-circuit power Introduction c The short-circuit power depends directly on the network configuration Example 1: and the impedance of its components: 25 kA at an operating voltage of 11 kV lines, cables, transformers, motors... through which the short-circuit Zcc current passes. R L A c It is the maximum power that the network can provide to an installation E Icc U Zs during a fault, expressed in MVA or in kA rms for a given operating voltage. B U : operating voltage (kV) ee Isc : short-circuit current (kA rms.) Ref: following pages Ssc = e • U • Isc ee The short-circuit power can be assimilated to an apparent power. c The customer generally imposes the value of short-circuit power on us because we rarely have the information required to calculate it. Determination of the short-circuit power requires analysis of the power flows feeding the short-circuit in the worst possible case.
