Dimensioning and selection<br />
Safe shutoff of the smallest single-pole ground short-circuit<br />
current<br />
Since the level of the loop impedance is decisive in determining<br />
the level of the single-pole short-circuit current, DIN VDE 0100<br />
Part 600 prescribes that the loop impedance must be determined<br />
between the following<br />
• external conductor and the PE conductor or<br />
• external conductor and PEN conductor.<br />
This value may be determined by<br />
• measuring with measurement instruments or<br />
• calculation or<br />
• simulation of the network in a network model.<br />
In the "Technical Specifications" section, the impedance values<br />
for the BD2A/BD2C busbar trunking systems are listed so that it<br />
is possible to calculate the loop impedances of a busbar system,<br />
which contributes to the total loop impedance.<br />
With the aid of the loop impedance of the entire busbar trunking<br />
system it is easy to calculate the smallest expected single-pole<br />
short-circuit current.<br />
