Fault MVA

08/28/2011 12:35 AM

Sir,

What is the significance of a fault MVA. How does it effect systems stability.

We have 110kv substation with 1327 fault MVA on 110kv bus. A 16 mva with z=10.34%; transformer (110/33) is connected. A 33 kv substation connected 6.5 km away from our substation. Help me to find fault mva on 33 kv substation.dog (overall dia 14.4mm)conductor is used in 33 kv line.

Google "Short Circuit ABC--Learn It in an Hour" and spend that one hour.

Tedious calculations, but, I can give you the data.

According to me,

Fault level at Inlet of your 33kv sub station after 6.5 km from 110kv/33kv sub station will be

Ifault - 2.66 KA . Fault MVA = 152.

This data will be useful in setting the Protection relays in your in comer circuit breaker. If properly set, breaker will provide perfect protection to the line / system. Other wise, Breaker some times will not trip during faults.
