Abstract: “The power system studies are required to evaluate the performance of the system at planning stage as well as running conditions. This paper presents short circuit analysis of an industrial electrical power distribution system in compliance to IEC 60909. Short-circuit studies can be performed at the planning and design stage in order to help finalize the system layout, determine voltage levels, protection equipments, switchgears, and cables size, transformers, grounding and earthing. The industrial distribution system is simulated on ETAP software and different fault study is performed.”
