Fault Calculation

This document summarizes the fault level calculation from a 33/11 kV substation to a residential building in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It details the equipment used, including a 20/28 MVA transformer with 13.67% impedance, underground XLPE cables, and overhead line conductors. It then shows the calculations to determine the fault level at the point of common coupling using the percentage reactance method, assuming a 33 kV bus fault level of 1000 MVA. The calculations result in a recommended minimum size for the high voltage cable.
