Problem 6.10. Two generators A and B are similar and rated 15 MVA,10.5 kV and have transient reactance of 35% at own base. The transformers are also identical, and are rated 7.5 MVA, 10.5/110 kV and have a reactance of 6% to their own base MVA. The tie line is 75 km, and each conductor has reactance of 0.9 ohms per km. A symmetrical three-phase fault occurs at the point 35 km from station A. Find the short circuit current. Sol.
