could lead to [14], [17].
For power system studies, the fault analysis assessment
is very useful because they provide information on the
various types of faults required for the development of the
protection systems of the power systems such as; the
voltages and currents. Short circuit and safety studies are
critical issues for the electrical system engineers. The main
task is to measure the failure conditions and to supply
protection equipment to isolate the failed area from the rest
of the system in due time. It is often planned carefully to
monitor the system network subject to high current damage
during failures [18]–[20].
A fault check under various types of short circuits is
called the method of calculating device voltages and currents.
Fault analysis is essential to advance customer service
security and quality. From time to time, the short-circuit
currents can be change. The new defensive element settings
(recloses, sectionalizing switches, fuses, etc.) are therefore
measured by an appropriate fault analysis technique. Short
circuit calculations are also essential to determine the short
circuit rates of the substation devices and the new switchgear
which are to be connected in the system. Fault analyses s
