When
an electrical short circuit
or fault condition exceeds
the interrupt rating of
a protective device, devastation
occurs resulting in loss
to your equipment and possible
injury to your personnel
|
|
Decreases
your risk of catastrophic
power failure and increases
reliability |
|
Minimizes
your risk of catastrophic
events ensuring personnel
safety and equipment protection
|
|
It is important that your
Power Distribution System
have a short circuit study
providing available fault
current on all the electrical
equipment on the electrical
one-line diagram |
|
All
your electrical equipment
such as switchgear, panelboards,
circuit breakers, fuses,
and so forth should have
interrupt ratings or acceptable
inrush currents capable
of handling the available
fault or short circuit current
as calculated in the electrical
fault current study |
