if we know Fault level say 25 KA , How to decide
busbar size for Distribution network of 1000 Amp
Breaker ?
Sample Calculation or Farmula Available or not ?

Answer Posted / mehul g. c.

if you know the fault level of that area.

then you should find short circuit current.
if you find that then your busbar should be design for that
much short circuit current.

suppose your fault level is 25 ka & then your short circuit
current is 1500 amp. then your busbar should stand safe at
25 ka for 1 or 2 sec until your breaker tripped.

We have a couple of oil tanks at our plant. One of them does not have a lightning arrester installed. My question is it necessary to install an arrestor on every tank or will this particular one be covered by the arrestor installed on the ajdacent tank, Since all the tanks are close to each other. Basically, I want to know that if these arrestors or protection works in a parituclar area of effect or influence. Thanks
