c For asynchronous motors v the short-circuit current across the terminals equals the start-up current Isc z 5 at 8 Ir v the contribution of the motors (current feedback) to the short-circuit current is equal to: I z 3 Ir The coefficient of 3, takes account of motors when stopped and the impedance to go right through to the fault.

c Equivalent impedance of a component through a transformer v for example, for a low voltage fault, the contribution of an HV cable upstream of an HV/LV transformer will be: R2 = R1( U2 )2 et X2 = X1 (U2 )2 U1 U1 Z2 = Z1 (U2 )2 U1
ainsi
This equation is valid for all voltage levels in the cable, in other words, even through several series-mounted transformers.
