Why short circuit calculation is not required in LT cable
sizing and requiredin HT cable sizing only

Answer Posted / xyz

Short Circuit withstand capacity is to be checked for HT
cables. For LT breaker controlled motor feeders, the cable
impedance reduces short circuit current considerable, hence,
short circuit withstand capacity is not required to be
checked for the rated fault level of the LT motors.
