For this calculation method, an equivalent voltage source at the short-circuit location is introduced. This does not exclude the use of special methods, for example the superposition method, adjusted to particular circumstances, if they give at least the same precision. The superposition method gives the short-circuit current related to the one load flow presupposed. This method, therefore, does not necessarily lead to the maximum short-circuit current .<\/p>\n<p>This part of <span class=\"std\"> <span class=\"std-ref\">IEC&nbsp;60909<\/span> <\/span> deals with the calculation of short-circuit currents in the case of balanced or unbalanced short circuits.<\/p>\n<p>A single line-to-earth fault is beyond the scope of this part of <span class=\"std\"> <span class=\"std-ref\">IEC&nbsp;60909<\/span> <\/span> .<\/p>\n<p>For currents during two separate simultaneous single-phase line-to-earth short circuits in an isolated neutral system or a resonance earthed neutral system, see <span class=\"std\"> <span class=\"std-ref\">IEC&nbsp;60909\u20113<\/span> <\/span> .<\/p>\n<p>Short-circuit currents and short-circuit impedances may also be determined by system tests, by measurement on a network analyser, or with a digital computer. In existing low-voltage systems it is possible to determine the short-circuit impedance on the basis of measurements at the location of the prospective short circuit considered.<\/p>\n<p>The calculation of the short-circuit impedance is in general based on the rated data of the electrical equipment and the topological arrangement of the system and has the advantage of being possible both for existing systems and for systems at the planning stage.<\/p>\n<p>In general, two types short-circuit currents, which differ in their magnitude, are considered:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>the maximum short-circuit current which determines the capacity or rating of electrical equipment; and<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>the minimum short-circuit current which can be a basis, for example, for the selection of fuses, for the setting of protective devices, and for checking the run-up of motors.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"non-normative-note\">\n<div class=\"note-label\">\n  NOTE\n <\/div>\n<p>The current in a three-phase short circuit is assumed to be made simultaneously in all poles.
