The prospective short-circuit current (PSCC) is the maximum current that can flow through a shorted electrical circuit. The PSCC value is needed for selecting devices like circuit breakers and fuses ...

Available fault current refers to the maximum short-circuit current at a specific system point. It depends on transformer size, conductor impedance, and system capacity, and must be calculated for ...

Abstract: In principle, HVDC installations contribute to a short circuit in the AC network, so this short-circuit current must be taken into account when designing the installations. Because of the ...
