Minimum short circuit - Phase to Phase faults

Is it okay to consider only phase to phase faults for the end of line fault as it produces the minimum fault. Is there any probability of phase to earth or 3 phase faults getting lower than phase to phase faults.


Thank you!

  • I tend to think that if the breaker is of current limiting type / fuses, the maximum length of the cable need not be verified. Cable size based on let-through energy is not dependent on the length of the cable. Indeed as the fault location is further away from the breaker, the let-through energy decreases which improves the situation.
