Short Circuit Calculation Methods - Power/mation
Short Circuit Calculation Methods Oct 1, 2004 By Massimo Mitolo, , Chu & Gassman Consulting Engineers All electrical systems are susceptible to Short circuits and the abnormal current levels they create. These currents can produce considerable thermal and mechanical stresses in electrical distribution equipment. Therefore, it's important to protect personnel and equipment by calculating Short - Circuit currents during system upgrade and design. Because these calculations are life-safety related, they're mandated by of the NEC, which states: Equipment intended to interrupt current at fault levels shall have an interrupting rating sufficient for the nominal Circuit voltage and the current that is available at the line terminals of the equipment.
