    The document describes a method for calculating fault level using the MVA method. It provides MVA values for various components connected upstream and downstream of buses at different voltage levels, such as a 3.3kV bus and a 415V bus. It then calculates the combined series and parallel MVA values to determine the final fault level MVA at each bus. For the 3.3kV bus, the fault level is calculated to be 207.827 MVA. For the 415V bus, the fault level is calculated to be 15.39726 MVA.
