    Short Circuit Calculations and Generator Pre-Fault Loading

    bacon4life: Thanks for the info on C37.010. The concern about the X/R near a generator being high makes sense (high X/R = high dc offset and slow decay), just not how the loading effects can be ignored without the calculated short circuit current being too low. And for clarification, I have...

    Short Circuit Calculations and Generator Pre-Fault Loading

    I am hoping that someone out there can explain something that has been bugging me. In my power system analysis class I learned that pre-fault loading of a synchronous generator results in an increase in the generator's "voltage behind the reactance", which in turn results in an increase in the...
