SINGLE-PHASE SHORT CIRCUIT CALCULATION TUTORIAL

Most large power networks are three phase, but sometimes a single-phase transformer may be connected either phase-to-phase or phase to ground to serve an isolated single-phase load. One needs to mention that single-phase transformers are commonly used in residential areas and within commercial buildings at 240/120 V, in USA or 400/230 in Europe. To provide the dual voltage in the secondary side, the transformer secondary is center-tapped and center leg grounded (some times known as Scott connection). This transformer is called single-phase mid tap transformer. Loads rated 120 V or 230 V are connected from the hot wire to the ground. Heavier loads requiring 240 V or 400 V are connected between the two hot phase (or phase-to-phase connection). However, shortcircuits can occur between the two hot phases or a hot phase to ground. This Tutorial will illustrates the EDSA single phase short-circuit program capabilities, and the instructions for creating a single-phase network and performing short circuit calculations. 1. Program capabilities: Short circuit calculation on a single phase network, tapped from a three-phase network with a line-to line or line-to ground connection to the utility bus; Single-phase network tapped from a single-phase utility source with 2-poles; Single phase network tapped from a mid tap transformer; Single-phase motor contributions; 2. Required Data For Performing A Short Circuit Study: A significant part of the preparation of Single-Phase Short-Circuit Current Calculation is represented by single-phase network modeling. This consists of getting the one-line connection diagram, getting the network component impedances and source impedances. The following data are required: Single-phase one-line connection diagram. The diagram should indicate Bus ID, bus voltages (line-to-line, and line-to-neutral), connection type, protective devices (if the user elects to model the impedance of protective devices); Transformer Input data: o Transformer short circuit impedance % Z and X / R ratio, or % R and % X , or R and X in per unit; o Primary voltage line-to-line and line-to-neutral; o Secondary voltage line-to-line and line-to-neutral; o Transformer KVA. Cable Input Data: o Cable size and type; o Cable length; o Cable R and X per unit length, or in per unit; o Duct type; Motor Input Data: o Motor ratings ( Amps or KVA, or HP, and %Efficiency and %Power Factor); o Motor line-to-neutral rated voltage; o % subtransient reactance (equals to Motor Full Load Current divided by Motor Locked Rotor current times 100) and X/r ratio, or R and X in per unit; o number of poles;

Generator Input Data: o Generator rating in KVA; o % subtransient reactance and X/R ratio or R and X in per unit; o Generator name-plate voltage, line-to-neutral. Utility Input Data: o Fault contribution in KVA and X/R ratio; o Utility rated voltage, line-to-line, or line-to-neutral.

3. Single-phase Short-Circuit Program Dialog Windows: Start the EDSAT2K program and either select a new file or open and existing file. Check the EDSA Master File Editor; the user should be the in AC 1 Phase network type. While in the AC 1 Phase Network, the single-phase catalog will be opened. The followings are the symbol Dialog Windows, the user works with: 3.1 Utility Dialog Window:
Utility Type connection: this is the type of the connection network point, the single phase network is connected to the Utility. The connection network point may be: 3-phase network; 1-phase network. Utility System Voltage: If the Utility type is 1-phase network, the line-to-line voltage is given; If the Utility type is a 3-phase network, both the line-to-line and line-to-neutral voltages are given, in volts or KV or per unit.

Utility Short Circuit Information Tab: Provides the Utility fault contribution to the connection point. It is given in KVA, MVA, Amps or per unit. 1-phase Network Connection to the Utility: The single phase network can be connected to the utility point, either L-L connection or L-N connection. 3.2 Feeder Dialog Window: As the network is a single phase network, both the phase/hot and return feeder information are required. Type, length, R and X of each feeder section need to be input. The hot and return feeder input data are provided separately. However, these data may be different.

3.3 Bus Dialog Window: The bus voltage magnitude depends on the way the single-phase network is connected to the utility. If the single-phase network is connected L-L to the Utility, then the bus L-L voltage is displayed., otherwise the L-N voltage is displayed.

3.4 Power Transformer Dialog Window: The system voltage are always L-L regardless the way the single-phase network is connected to the utility.
The power transformer dialog window has 3 tabs: Transformer description; Transformer short circuit input data; Transformer load flow input data.
Transformer description fields are for document purpose.

The transformer short circuit input data tab requires: Either transformer R% and X%, or Z% and X/R ratio. Transformer taps on Load Flow are also used by the Short Circuit program and are common to both.

3.5 Motor Dialog Window:
The motor dialog window has 3 tabs: Motor description; Motor short circuit input data; Motor load flow input data.
Motor description fields are for document purpose. The Motor short circuit input data tab requires: Motor ratings (Motor Rated Power, %Running, %Power Factor, %Efficiency), subtransient and transient reactance, and X/R ratio.

3.6 Mid Tap power transformer dialog window:
Mid Tap power transformer is used to connect a single-phase network to a three-phase network, either L-L or L-N connection. The connection information provides the: system primary bus voltage; system secondary bus voltage; mid tap bus voltage; it is ( U mid _ tap

3.7 Single Phase Switch Dialog Window:
The switch dialog window has three tabs: Description; Switch Data; Instalation.
The Switch general input data provides the Switch type, connection information, and switch connection status (open or closed). Switch ratings, in terms of Maximum Voltage and Amp rating. The optional descriptions are for document purposes.

B. Single-phase network tapped from a three-phase utility source with 2-poles; File name: 1PH_XFMRLOAD1.axd In this part of the tutorial a single-phase network is connected to a three-phase Utility with 2 poles: having a Line-to-line connection to the Utility. The study network has the following particulars: Power utility is 3-phase type; To provide the dual voltage 7.2 KV and 0.12 KV a 1-single phase mid tap transformer is connected to the Utility part. The transformer secondary is centertapped and center leg grounded (some times known as Scott connection). Loads rated 0.12 KV are connected from the hot wire to the ground. Heavier loads requiring 7.2 KV are connected between the two hot phase (or phase-to-phase connection). However, short-circuits can occur between the two hot phases or a hot phase to ground; The single-phase network has panels supplied at 0.12 KV and 7.2 KV; Faults on the two outsides legs are for 7.2 KV and from the outer phase to the neutral phases are for 0.12 KV; The outside phase (L-L) need to have 2-pole devices represent in order to clear the fault; 0.12 KV legs, connected between the outer phases most often are single-phase. However, short-circuits can occur between the two hot phases or a hot phase to ground. We will consider the fault at , 5 or 30 cycles as per ANSI Standards.
