A Comparison of Short Circuit Calculation Methods and Guidelines for Distribution Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper focuses on several different short-circuit calculation methods and standards/guidelines. Special attention is paid to modelling enhancements of a typical steady state short circuit calculation to take into account the impact of AC and DC decay. Several networks were used to test these enhancements and the findings are summarised on a representative section of a genuine distribution network in the UK.

Generally, the failure rate and the repair time of system components are constant parameters in reliability assessment of electric distribution systems. A failure of component is resulted from failing in the operation or overloading. In addition, there exist cases where, the repair times of components are small and tolerable from customer point of view. Thus, tolerable repair times may be overl...
