Fault Calculations Video

Learn about short circuit analysis in our software. Visit how we calculate the fault at panels and the factors that impact the outcome.

We look at the following topics for fault calculations:

  • Viewing and modifying the ElectroBIM fault current schedule created using the Schedules→Fault command
  • Configuring fault current settings for distribution equipment in the Panel Edit command
    • Modifying settings at the family level using the Family Edit command
  • Fault current settings for branch circuit devices

We also answer the following questions:

  • "How do the fault calculations work with regard to transfer switches and generators?"
  • "If the utility transformer is not defined in the Revit model, how do I set up my fault calculations?"
