Training Recording: Fault Calculations

Thursday, September 21st, 2023

Learn about short-circuit analysis in our software. See 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 Design Master fault current schedule created using the Schedules->Fault command (00:46)
- How the DMET_PanelTree_SortOrder shared parameter is used to sort the distribution tree (01:36)
- Shared parameters used to display the calculated fault with or without warnings (02:02)
Configuring fault current settings for distribution equipment in the Panel Edit command (03:21)
Fault current settings for branch circuit devices (10:12)

We also answer the following questions:

“How do the fault calculations work with regard to transfer switches and generators?” (16:33)
- Automatic Transfer Switches in Revit article in the knowledge base (17:24)
“If the utility transformer is not defined in the Revit model, how do I set up my fault calculations?” (19:24)

Awesome, share it:

Thanks!

We appreciate your feedback.
