FOREWORD
This Indian Standard which is identical with IEC Pub 865 ( 1986 ) Calculation
of the effects
of short-circuit currents, issued by the International Electrotechnical
Commission ( IEC ) was
adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendations
of the Electrical
Installations Sectional Committee ( ET 20 ) and approval of the Electrotechnical
Division
Council.
An important criterion for the proper selection of a circuit-breaker or any other fault protective
devices for use at a point in an electrical circuit is the information on maximum fault current
mechanical and thermal stresses which a switchgear
likely at that point. The electromagnetic,
and the associated apparatus have to withstand depends on the fault current.
Proper selection
of breaking and withstand capacities play a major role in e health of the electrical installations. Realizing this need and to provr+i e uniform g P ide fo. calculation of short-circuit
currents, IS 5728 was brought out in 1970.#;,
.,,
Subsequent
to the preparation
of this standa d, considerable
information
has been
collated the world over on calculation of fault levels under different and specific circumstances.
There was also a need to simplify calculation techniques in practical way commensurate
with
the modern arithmetic tools available to engineers in the form of computers, digital transient
network analysers etc. With an objective to establish a general, practicable
and concise
procedure for short-circuit current calculations IS 5728 has been taken up for revision, aligning
its contents with IEC 865 ( 1986 ).
This Indian Standard supplements the provisions of IS 13234 : 199l/IEC 909 (1988) by covering
standardized procedures for the calculation of the electromagnetic and thermal effects of fault
currents in electrical circuits.
1.
scope
This standard contains standardized procedures for the calculation of the effects of the
short-circuit currents in two sections as follows:
Section One - The electromagnetic effect on rigid conductors and slack conductors.
Section Two - The thermal effect on bare conductors..
Only a.c. systems for rated voltages up to and including. 72.5 kV are dealt with in this
standard.

THE ELECTROMAGNETIC
EFFECT
AND SLACK CONDUCTORS
ON RIGID
CONDUCTORS
General
With the calculation methods presented in this section, forces on insulators, stresses in rigid
conductors and tensile forces in slack conductors can be estimated.
5.
5. I
When the currents are in opposite directions the electromagnetic force is a repulsion which
tends to induce deformations that would increase inductance of the circuit.
The value of the force in a given direction can be calculated by considering the work done
in the case of a virtual displacement in the actual direction. As the work is done by the electromagnetic force, it must be equal to the change in the energy in the magnetic field caused by
this virtual displacement. This leads to the following equation for the force F, in direction x
(1)
where L is the self-inductance
( mcpage11)
IS 13235: 1991
IECPob845(1981)
For simple and idealized configurations, formulae for the calculation of inductance are
available. However, in most cases approximations are necessary to give practical calculation
methods.
The force between two conductors is proportional to the square of the current, or to the
product of the two currents. As the current is a function of time, the force will also be a
function of time. In the case of a short-circuit current without a d.c. component the force will
vary with twice the frequency of the current. A d.c. component in the short-circuit current will
give rise to an increase of the peak value of the force and to a component of force varying with
the same frequency as the current. The peak value of the force is of particular interest in the
case of mechanically rigid structures.
The force will result in bending stress on rigid conductors, tension stress and deflection in
flexible conductors and bending, compression or tension loads on the supports.
(2)
where I is the distance, in metres, between supports, il and i;!are the instantaneous values of
the currents in the conductors in kiloamperes, a is the centre-line distance between the
conductors in metres.
When the currents in the two conductors have the same direction, the forces are attractive.
When the direction of the currents is opposite, the forces are repulsive.
5.2.2 Calculation of peak force between the main conductors during a three-phase short-circuit
In a three-phase system with the conductors arranged at the same intervals on the same
plane, the maximum force acts on the central conductor during a three-phase short-circuit
and is:
Fm3 - 0.2 i& -!- 0.87 N

where.63 in kiloamperes is the peak value of the a.c. component of the short-circuit current in
the case of a balanced three-phase short-circuit.

Formula (3) can also be used for calculating the resulting peak force when the conductors arc in the comers
of an quilateral triangle and where 4 is the length of the side of the triangk.

In Table III the highest acceptable values for q for different cross-sections are given. For
q > 1.0 small permanent deformations may occur (approximately 1% of the distance between
supports for q-values according to Table III) which do not jeopardize the safety of operation.
Note. -
For the yield point of conductor materials, Q.2, the standards often state ranges with minimum and
maximum values. If only such limit values rather than actual readings are available, the minimum value
should be used in Sub-clause 6.2.1 and the maximum value in Sub-clause 6.3.
6.2.2 Section modulus of main conductors composed of sub-conductors with rectangular crosssection
The bending stress and conseqnently the mechanical withstand of the conductor depend on
the section modulus.
If the stress occurs in accordance with Figure 2a), page 28, the section modulus 2 is equal to
the sum of the section moduli Z, of the sub-conductors (Z, with respect to the axis x-x).
If the stress occurs in accordance with Figure 2b)and in the case there is only one or no stiffening element within a supported distance the section modulus 2 is equal to the sum of the
section modul! Z, of the sub-conductors (Z, with respect to the axis y-y).
When withiq a supported distance there are two or more stiffening elements, higher values
may be used. For main conductors composed of sub-conductors of rectangular cross-section
with a space between the bars equal to the bar thickness, 60% of the section modulus with
IS 13235 : 1991
IEC Pub 865 ( 1986
respect to the axis O-O may be used. For conductor groups having profile cross-section,
approximately 50% of the section modulus with respect to the axis O-Omay be used. See
Table IV.

these factors can be taken from Figure 4, page 30, for a multi-phase system. Excepted are
structures with small relevant natural frequencies of conductor fc/f < 0.5, where K < 1.6; for

THE THERMAL
EFFECT
ON BARE CONDUCTORS
General
This section gives calculation methods for the thermal effect on bare conductors. For cables
and insulated conductors reference is given to the appropriate I EC Technical Committee and
Sub-Committee*.
The heating of conductors due to short-circuit currents involves several phenomena of a
non-linear character and other factors that have to be either neglected or approximated in
order to make a mathematical approach possible.
For the purpose of this section the following assumptions have been made:
-
Proximity-effect

Resistance-temperature
characteristic
General
The loss of heat from a conductor during the short-circuit is very low, and the heating can
generally be considered adiabatic. The calculation in this section is based on adiabatic conditions.
When repeated short-circuits occur with a short-time interval between them (i.e. rapid autoreclosure) the cooling down in the short dead-time is of relatively low importance, and the
heating can still be considered adiabatic. In cases where the dead-time interval is of longer
duration (i.e. delayed auto-reclosure) the heat loss may be taken into account.
The calculation does not taGinto
account#he skin effect, i.e. the current is regarded as
evenly distributed over the conductor cross-sectionarea.
This approximation is not valid for
large cross-sections, and there*
for cross-sections above 600 mm2 the skin effect shall be
taken into account. For calculation, refer to the literature.
Note. - If the main conductor is composed of sub-conductors, uneven current distribution between the,subconductors will influence the temperature rise of sub-conductors.
