What is Short Circuit Current?

07/06/2009 4:57 AM

I have a 5 MVA transformer is a rating of 11/33 KV it will located at Power Plant.The power will be steeped down to 0.433 KV through 2 MVA transformer .This is Sychronising the Grid(Electricity Board) power. The Distance B/W 5MVA & 2MVA is 2.5 KM.The inter connecting B/W two transformer is cable.

Theoretically, it's infinity:

Using Ohm law: I=V/R

Short Circuit implies R=0 (Theoretically, R's never really 0)

I=V/0 = Undefined/Infinity
