In-depth explanation of the short-circuit behaviors of five important types of electrical equipment
I described in a previous article the benefits of learning how to do short-circuit analysis by hand. There are five primary elements that you need to know how to model when doing so. I go into the details here . . . . Continue reading “In-depth explanation of the short-circuit behaviors of five important types of electrical equipment”
