Short-Circuits in AC and DC Systems: ANSI, IEEE, and IEC Standards

This book covers short-circuit currents, current interruption theories, circuit breaker types, calculations according to ANSI/IEEE and IEC standards, and the rating structure of switching devices. It explains the nature of short-circuit currents, the symmetrical components for unsymmetrical faults, and matrix methods of solutions.

This book provides an understanding of the nature of short-circuit currents, current interruption theories, circuit breaker types, calculations according to ANSI/IEEE and IEC standards, theoretical and practical basis of short-circuit current sources, and the rating structure of switching devices. The book aims to explain the nature of short-circuit currents, the symmetrical components for unsymmetrical faults, and matrix methods of solutions, which are invariably used on digital computers. It includes innovations, worked examples, case studies, and solved problems.
