I try to simulate a small industrial network using ELPEK software. For the source I have value of short circuit current. But for defining a feeder internal R and X are required and I haven't r/x ratio. I am looking for advice regarding typical values. I know they will vary, but I should start from somewhere.
This problem appears every time I have to simulate some network. Usually the only information available from the customer is short circuit power or current.

Thank you Slava. I am on 6 kV side, so I will start with x/r=2 , it should be sufficient for the first approximation.
Source is 110/6,3 kV, 125 MVA power transformer, supplied through very short 110 kV line from a big system substation 400/110 kV.
