IEEE Recommended Practice for Conducting Short-Circuit Studies and Analysis of Industrial and Commercial Power Systems
Also Known As: IEEE Std 3002.3-2018
The IEEE 3002.3-2018 standard specifies how to perform short-circuit analysis on power systems in industrial and commercial contexts. The standard addresses a variety of short-circuit analysis tasks, such as design considerations for new systems, analytical investigations for existing systems, and operational and model validation issues.
The calculation of fault currents and the evaluation of device workload are two of the important areas of short-circuit analysis addressed by this standard. The assumptions and methodologies utilized in system modeling influence the accuracy of these calculations. To conduct a modern short-circuit investigation, the standard promotes the use of computer-aided analytical software with appropriate capabilities.
The standard also examines system data requirements and provides examples of result analysis methodologies. It is designed to be a useful resource for power-oriented engineers who may have little expertise with short-circuit research and analysis.
