Three Phase Fault Current

Computes initial symmetrical (Ik'') and peak (ip) short-circuit currents for a radial network using the IEC 60909-0 simplified method. Sums source, transformer, and cable impedances in series referred to the system voltage level, then applies the voltage factor c and peak factor kappa to determine fault currents for switchgear rating and protection coordination.
