Abstract: The electric panel has a function as a distribution device and as protection for electricity from the PLN. A panel
must at least have protective equipment that functions so that if a fault occurs in electrical equipment, the fault can be corrected
and does not interfere with the performance of the panel. In order for the protection equipment to work properly, accuracy is
required in selecting the current rating and breaking capacity value of the protection components used. The purpose of this
research is to analyze the breaking capacity value, nominal load current value, and short circuit current for each electrical
protection component in the busbar room panel at PT Trias Indra Saputra. The analysis was carried out by comparing the results
of manual calculations with calculations using the XL3-Pro calcul software, as well as the installed protection components. After
calculating and comparing the results, the electrical protection components are still suitable for use as protection in the event of
a fault, both short circuit fault and overcurrent on the electrical equipment in the busbar room panel at PT Trias Indra Saputra.
In the outgoing protection Q0 is a protection component that connects the power source from the LVMDP panel to the busbar
room panel at PT Trias Indra Saputra. Different results were obtained from the three comparisons. By using the MCCB current
rating of 100A, it has been able to secure the circuit from short circuit faults and overload.
