  • With the recent expansion of electric capacity, troubles in the electric system threatening the stable electricity supply are rapidly increasing. However, most of the current short-circuit capacity calculations have been made manually. This research focuses on the development of a program which uses the Visual Basic. We can obtain the stability in the system diagram and the reliability of the loaded facilities by calculating an exact breaking capacity for each electric facility with this method. We expect that this research can be widely used for the design and construction of the electric facilities in the future.

  • The safety and reliability of the power system short-circuit current, the short-circuit current depends on the failure to obtain the objective is to quickly eliminate the breaking capacity of the circuit-breaker selection of the cable, the insulation of electrical equipment and protective relay an important factor in determining the level correction and protective relay selection scheme to be meaningful. Standards used in the domestic circuit breaker is applied to the production of IEC standard, but the American National Standards (ANSI / IEEE) by NEMA specification of the fault current calculations and the application of the asymmetric coefficient Korea. Therefore, in this paper, the IEC 60909 standard IEC breaker fault current calculation method and the method for selection of system configurations reviewed and protection system for reviewing the configuration of various protective relays appropriate correction and the correction value is main protection, back-up protection the equipment so that the period of protection relay coordination to minimize accidents and accident protection to minimize interruptions proposed for cooperation.
