Short Circuit Per Unit Method

This document performs a symmetrical fault analysis on a distribution system with the following key components: - A 100 MVA transformer with a source impedance of 0.03 + j0.99 pu - Line impedances of 0.0112 + j0.0268 pu and 17.58 + j4.197 pu - A lumped motor load modeled as an impedance of 281.955 + j1071.43 pu - The calculated fault current is 5.744 kA
