Effect of the let-through energy of overcurrent protective devices on the temperature of conductors during short-circuits

Abstract

The scope of the verification of low-voltage systems covers the earth fault loop impedance measurement. This measurement is usually performed with the use of low-value current meters, which force a current many times lower than the one occurring during a real short-circuit. Therefore, the international standard recommends consideration of the increase of resistance of conductors with the increase of temperature, which may occur during short-circuits. This paper analyses the temperature rise of the conductors during short-circuits, taking into account the let-through energy of protection devices. The analysis has shown that in typical circuits the temperature rise of conductors is not significant.
