    busbar short circuit withstand capability

    What is the exact definition of a HV busbar short circuit withstand capability. If for example, after calcuation, we have a bus with a 3-phase symmetrical momemntray short circuit of 50 kA, how can we calculate the busbar short circuit withstand capability. Any IEEE references?

    Ground Grid Layout

    I contacted sestech and they told me that I can not get it as lons as I am not of of their customers. BTW, how did you get this paper?

    Ground Grid Layout

    Hi Veman, Can I ask the customer to get one of his technicians to track the ground grid rods and bare conductors and provide me with the following: 1. The Rods (material, length, and size) 2. Ground grid conductors (material and size) connected, and the spacing between their connections. 3...

    Ground Grid Layout

    Thx dpc for your reply. I did check it and find it in IEEE 80-2000. Another question, If the customer does not have the drawing of the ground grid layout, what do I advise him to do so I can pursue with the study?

    Motor MCA

    Hi guys, I was checking a single line diagram and it shows a motor of 17.9 MCA, 600V, 3-phase. What does MCA stands for and how is it calculated?

    Fuse sizing for an MCC future expansion

    I have another question regarding sizing fuse. I have an MCC of 180 HP with an incoming feeder of 2 parallel runs 4-350 MCM Based on Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), Max Amps passing through this cable is 625 A and so is its permissible protective device rating. To size its fuse, the fuse...

    Transformer burnt while installing cap banks

    In that case, what can we do? do we need to measure harmonics in the facility and then try to get the frequency resonance and then add somehow a line reactor or what?

    Transformer burnt while installing cap banks

    Hi, We were adding a step capacitor bank (each 600KvAr) to one of our customers. Out technician was installing it was stepping in and out Capacitors simultaneously in a way that did burns the main transformer. Is there any suggestion what can be the cause of that? Note that the customer did have...
