8) How to calculate Fault current of a system?
Method 1
First find out Max. Current I = (MVA x 1000) / (1.73 x kV)
I = (12.5 x 1000) / (1.73 x 11)
I = 656A
The 5.0% impedance rating indicates that 656 amps will flow in the secondary if
the secondary is short circuited line to line and the primary voltage is raised from
zero volts to a point at which 5.0% of 11kilo volts, or, 550 volts, appears at the
secondary terminals. Therefore, the impedance (Z) of the transformer secondary may
now be calculated:
Z = V / I = 550 / 656 = 0.838
Let us assume Utility is able to supply unlimited KVA, so at 11kV MVA rating from Transformer will be
= 656 / 0.05 =13120Amps
Method 2
Alternate Way,
Now for Fault current will be given by If = I / (P.U. impedance)
If = 656 / 0.05
If = 13.1kA
Method 3
Alternate way,
Fault MVA = MVA / PU Impedance
MVAf = 12.5 / 0.05 = 250MVA
If = MVAf x 1000 / (1.73 x kV)
= 250x1000 / (1.73 x 11)
= 13.1kA
Method 1
First find out Max. Current I = (MVA x 1000) / (1.73 x kV)
I = (12.5 x 1000) / (1.73 x 11)
I = 656A

If = 13.1kA
Method 3

Fault MVA = MVA / PU Impedance
MVAf = 12.5 / 0.05 = 250MVA
If = MVAf x 1000 / (1.73 x kV)
= 250x1000 / (1.73 x 11)
= 13.1kA
9) How to calculate fault MVA?
Fault MVA = MVA / PU Impedance
MVAf = 12.5 / 0.05 = 250MVA
Fault MVA = MVA / PU Impedance
MVAf = 12.5 / 0.05 = 250MVA
10) What is Circuit breaker? And how to specify circuit breaker?
Circuit breaker is a main switching device of switching station or substation or switchgear, which is either automatically operated or manually operated and is used to isolate circuit from other part of circuit either in healthy condition or in faulty conditions.

In case relay operated and breaker is open as already breaker is already charge it will take 30 mili Sec to close the breaker.
Now again if breaker tripped it will take 3 min to close breaker and after 3 min again reclose operation can take place. Actual represent will be
O-0.3s-C-0.03s-O-3 Min-C-0.03s-O
In general O-t-CO-T-CO, where t=0.3 sec for rapid recloser operation
t = 15 sec for non-rapid reclosing

16) What do you mean by CT burden?
CT burden is the total burden imposed to Current transformer from all connected equipment in its secondary circuit.
CT (current transformer) Burden is the maximum load that the CT secondary can drive (e.g. meters or protection relays)
The secondary load of a current transformer is usually called the "burden" to distinguish it from the load of the circuit whose current is being measured.
CT Burden is the impedance (mainly resistive) in a CT circuit across its secondary circuit.
Typical Burden for IEC CTs:
1.5VA, 3VA, 5VA, 10VA, 15VA, 20VA, 30VA, 45VA, 60VA
(For Ex. CT Secondary = 1A and burden is 1.5VA, so I2R = 1.5
(1)2R = 1.5
R = 1.5 Ohms
That means with burden of 1.5VA and CTS = 1A one can connect total resistive load of 1.5 Ohms.
Typical Burden for ANSI/IEEE CTs
B-0.1, B-02, B-0.5, B-1.0, B-2.0 and B-4.0
B-0.1 represents this CT can tolerate max of 0.1 ohm across its secondary. (Generally ANSI CTs are specified for 5 A of CT Secondary) or in other words B-0.1 represents that with CT secondary of 5A with this CT total of 0.1 ohm resistive load can be connected.

17) What is CT accuracy?
CT Accuracy represents percentage error of CT ratio i.e. primary to secondary current.
As per IEC Standard 60044-1 Instrument Transformer Part -1 (Current Transformer) accuracy are divided in various class such as 0.1, 0.2s, 0.2, 0.5, 0.5s, 1 and 3.
For Example, 0.1 Class CT for 100/1 A ratio, represent that this CT is having 1% of error when rated current is reached. i.e. at 100A actual secondary current will be (1-(1% of 1A)) = 0.99A
Now, someone may have confusion what can be difference between 0.2 and 0.2s or 0.5 and 0.5s accuracy class.
0.2 means + / -2% error at 100% & 120% of full load current. With more increased in load (i.e. more than 120% CT performance can be guaranteed) but below this level (i.e. below 100%) the error is not guaranteed.
If this CT have load of 20% even with 0.2s its guaranteed that error will be + / - 2% only but with class 0.2 it will be around + / - 0.35%.
Refer below table for more reference.
Now why it is necessary to consider such class?
In big power project, entire project will be commissioned in steps only and for the same project when initially loading is very low, and tariff metering is provided it will give big difference on actual tariff and that may not be acceptable by either supplier (in case of –ve error) or by consumer (in case of +ve error), in such cases 0.2s or 0.5s accuracy is must. Because for such a big project let’s say 20MVA, so with even 1% it will come to 200KVA.
