Figure 10: Fault calculation for 145 kV residual overcurrent protection setting
The following fault types are applied: phase-phase-ground short circuit and phase-
ground-fault. The source impedance (both positive sequence and zero sequence) at
the 145 kV level gives the following residual current from the transformer during a
phase-to-ground busbar fault (the current is hand-calculated but is normally
calculated in a computer).
The zero sequence transformer impedance is assumed to be equal to the positive
sequence short circuit impedance:
