Title: Symmetrical Fault Analysis using MATLAB Software.
Introduction:
To become familiar with modeling and analysis of power system under faulted condition and to
compute the fault current, post fault voltage and fault current through the branches for a
symmetrical fault in a small power system and also study the effect of neighboring system.
1. To observe the effect of ‘α’ variation over symmetrical fault current.
2. To carryout fault analysis for symmetrical faults in small systems using the Thevenin’s
equivalent circuit in the sequences and phase domains at the faulted bus but without the use of
software.
3. To conduct fault analysis on a given system using software available and obtain fault analysis
report with fault level and current at the faulted point and post-fault voltages and currents in the
network for symmetrical faults.

Discussion:
The experiment was symmetrical Fault Analysis using MATLAB Software. In this experiment
we learn how to solve symmetrical faut by MATLAB. In MATLAB Simulink first of all we
draw a diagram for the given problem. For different parameter we measure symmetrical fault.
Firstly having face some problem and output was not come what I expect and then according to
given instruction from my faculty I got exact output successfully.
