3. CALCULATE FAULT CURRENT: NOTES:

1. WIRE IMPEDANCES ARE TAKEN FROM NEC 2017, CHAPTER 9 TABLE 9.
IF-PU = VPU / ZEQ-PU = 1 / 4.47537 = 0.223445 PU 2. SEE LOAD SCHEDULE FOR CABLE SIZE, WATTAGE, & CABLE LENGTH.
IFHV = IF-PU x IBASE = 0.223445 x 724.6377 = 161.9168A
IFLV = IFHV x (13.8kV/460) = 161.9168 x (13800
