Introduction

A short circuit occurs when electrical power takes an unexpected path, resulting in a large increase in current flow. In transmission lines, a short circuit occurs when a line comes in contact with the ground. Short circuit analysis is performed to calculate when protective equipment should trigger and protect equipment and people.
