Fault Level Calcn in 11KV & 415V

This document contains calculations of fault levels at different voltage levels of a 8 MW captive power plant in Tadipatri, India. The key details are: 1. The power plant includes an 8.6MVA transformer operating at 11kV/33kV, and an 8MW generator. 2. Fault calculations show a fault level of 162MVA and 8.5kA at the 11kV bus. 3. Further calculations determine a fault level of 24.3MVA and 32.4kA at the 415V bus, with a total motor end fault of 40.4kA.
