    SHORT CIRCUIT ANALYSIS

    The impact of short circuits varies depending on the transformer tapping configurations.

    Tappings are significant in transformers as they allow for adjustments to the LV side
    bus voltage during load flow analysis, whether through OLTC or DETC mechanisms, to
    increase or decrease voltage. However, when considering short circuit scenarios, it's crucial to
    determine the appropriate short circuit ratings for the buses. In cases where tappings are
    applied, the short circuit current may vary depending on the tapping used.

    Nominal tap:

    Under the nominal tap setting, the transformer


    impedance remains constant, unaffected by tapping
    adjustments. Short circuit levels at the bus voltage are
    determined solely based on the transformer impedance. Taps do
    not influence this calculation.

    +2.5 Tap position:

    When using a +2.5 tap setting, the transformer's


    impedance is reduced by adjusting the tap position from 0
    to 2.5. As a result, the short circuit current is increased
    compared to the nominal tap setting.

    -2.5 Tap position:

    When using a -2.5 tap setting, the


    transformer's impedance is increased by adjusting
    the tap position from 0 to -2.5. As a result, the short
    circuit current is decreased compared to the nominal
    tap setting.
