FAULT CALCULATIONS AND STABILITY STUDIES 279transformers is simply <strong>the</strong> arithmetic sum <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir <strong>in</strong>dividual rat<strong>in</strong>gs S ti .S te =n∑i=1S tiThe equivalent impedance Z te <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> transformers may be found from,Z te =S ten∑S tii=1Z ti11.5.2.6 Worked exampleThree transformers feed a load from a ma<strong>in</strong> switchboard. Their rat<strong>in</strong>gs and impedances are,n∑i=1Transformer No. 1 S ti = 10 MVAZ ti = 0.008 + j0.09 puTransformer No. 2 S t2 = 15 MVAZ t2 = 0.009 + j0.1 puTransformer No. 3 S t3 = 25 MVAZ t3 = 0.01 + j0.12 puThe total capacity S te = 10.0 + 15.0 + 25.0= 50.0 MVAS tiZ ti=10.00.008 + j0.09 + 15.00.009 + j0 + 1 + 25.00.01 + j0.12= 40.432 − j465.9350.0Z te == 0.0092 + j0.1065 pu40.432 − j465.9311.6 CALCULATE THE SUB-TRANSIENT SYMMETRICAL RMS FAULTCURRENT CONTRIBUTIONSThe method adopted below is based upon <strong>the</strong> pr<strong>in</strong>ciples set out <strong>in</strong> IEC60363 and IEC60909, both<strong>of</strong> which describe how to calculate sub-transient and transient fault currents, and are well suited tooil <strong>in</strong>dustry power systems. The method will use <strong>the</strong> per-unit system <strong>of</strong> parameters and variables.Choose <strong>the</strong> base MVA to be S base .
