For a ground fault, the total burden (Z
burden
) is 2 • 1.25 = 2.5 ,i.e., Z
burden
(2.5 < 2.7
We obtain similar results for a fault at S. Therefore, we need not worry about
CT saturation for this application.
Minimum Fault Levels. In calculating the minimum fault current, we
assume a resistive fault with load.
Equation 3.116 provides the total fault current for a resistive ground fault
during load conditions:
Equation 3.116
where d is the fault location in per unit, and R
f
is the fault resistance.
Equation 3.116 is applicable to any two-terminal line. For highly resistive
faults (R
f
>> system impedances), this equation reduces to the following:
Equation 3.117
The following equation provides the ratio of the remote and local currents
(I
AR
/I
AL
) for this fault.
Equation 3.118
Where C
1
and C
0
are the positive-sequence and zero-sequence current
distribution factors provided by the following:
Equation 3.119
For a fault in the middle of the line with R
f
= 100 , we can apply the values
from Table 3.166 to Equation 3.116–Equation 3.118.

We then divide by the base current, as in the following:
