Balanced Fault Analysis
v(t ) = 2 V cos(t + )
Before the switch is closed, i(t) = 0.
When the switch is closed at t = 0, the current will
have two components: (1) a steady-state value and
(2) a transient value.

Fault Analysis
Lightning is the cause of most of the faults
occur in the 66 kV and more overhead
transmission lines.
The calculation of fault currents can be divided
into the following two main types.
(i)Three phase short circuits: network remains
balanced electrically. Normal single phase
equivalent circuits may be used.
(ii) Faults other than 3 phase short circuit, the
network is electrically unbalanced.
Symmetrical component theory is used for
this.

Y22= I2/V2 when: V1 and V3 are zero.
We can also write:
I1= V1 Y11 +V2 Y12 + V3 Y13 ;Y12 =I1 /V2 when: V1 and V3
are zero.

Matrix elimination
IA = K VA +L VX…….(E)
IX = LT VA +M VX…(F)
Since all elements of IX are zero:
- LT VA = M VX
Multiplying both sides by M-1
-M-1 LT VA =M-1 M VX = VX…..(G)
Substituting (G) in (E),
IA = K VA -LM-1 LT VA
IA =[ K -LM-1 LT ] VA

Case -II Adding Zb from a new bus p to an
existing bus k
The addition of a new bus p connected through
Zb to an existing bus k with Ip injected at bus p
will cause the current entering the original
network at bus k to become the sum of Ik which
is injected at bus k plus the current Ip coming
through Zb
The current Ip flowing into bus k will increase the
original Vk by the voltage Ip Zkk.

Adding Zb from a new bus p to
an existing bus k
Vk (new) = Vk (orig)+ Ip Zkk
Vp will be larger than the new Vk by the voltage Ip Zb .
Vp = Vk (orig)+ Ip Zkk + Ip Zb .
Vp = Vk (orig)+ Ip (Zkk + Zb )
We now see that the new row which must be added
to Zorig in order to find Vp is [Zk1 Zk2 ….. Zkn …. , (Zkk

Adding Zb from a new bus p to

Since Zbus must be square matrix around
the diagonal; we must add a new column

V1 = I1 Z11 + …………+ Z1j ( Ij + Ib ) + Z1k ( Ik - Ib ),
rearranging:
V1 = I1 Z11 + …………+ Z1j Ij + Z1k Ik + Ib(Z1j -Z1k ),
similarly
Vj = I1 Zj1 + …………+ Zjj Ij + Zjk Ik + Ib(Zjj -Zjk )

CASE IV: Adding Zb between two

We now need one more equation: Since Ib is also
unknown:
Vk - Vj =Ib Zb, 0= Ib Zb +Vj -Vk
Substituting Vj and Vk from the above equation
0 = Ib Zb + I 1(Zj1 -Zk1 ) + ..+ Ij(Zjj -Zkj ) + Ik(Zki -Zkk )
