Making capacity is the max fault current it can carry during closing of breaker, e.g. You are closing a breaker on fault. The making capacity is always higher because it is expressed in peak value not rms, and also because of the DC offset, voltage and PF while closing
HBC (High Breaking Capacity, European term) and HRC (High Rupturing Capacity, North American term) fuses have the ability to break high fault currents. This is done by having silica sand in the fuse that the fuse elements travel through. On high fault current that sand will melt and turn to glass. This breaks the current flow immediatelyA cartridge fuse maximum current breaking capacity is very much lower than HRC, HBC because there is nothing in the fuse body except the fuse elements.
A current transformer is primarily used at the neutral point of a transformer for earth fault protection. A neutral current transformer will measure any ground fault current which will essentially flow from the star point of the transformer. A fault-detection device other devices is connected to the current transformer and, if the fault current exceeds a certain trigger value, the fault-detection device will give a trip command to an earth-fault relay to disconnect the supply of electricity to the transformer.
HRC stands for 'high rupture capacity'. An alternative abbreviation is 'HBC, meaning 'high breaking capacity. The rupture (or breaking) capacity is a term describing the maximum short-circuit current that the fuse can safely interrupt at its rated voltage. Most fuses will safely interrupt any level of fault current between a current that just causes the fuse to operate (melt), up to their maximum breaking capacity- such fuses are called 'full-range'. HRC fuses usually have strong, ceramic bodies to withstand the huge pressure generated when the fuse has to interrupt a large short-circuit current. In contrast, low breaking capacity fuses have weaker bodies made from materials such as glass.
Most times it is the surge current the breaker can withstand in kilo-amps. A normal breaker will see several thousand amps in a short condition. The breaker must be able to withstand and break that current safely.
This is a fuse that has the ability to interrupt a high fault current.

transformer max earth fault current
It the angle between fault current and voltage at the point where the fault occurs.
what is current capacity of 95 sqmm cable?

fault records gives complete information about a fault,i. fault current magnitude,type of fault,fault phase details,etc.with time stamping.
It refers to a device any device whereby the device has limit to carry current. Therefore the term current capacity

The current capacity varies depending on the length and diameter of the wire
i believe that the current seating capacity for villa park is 42,585
It will just be the sum of the current-carrying capacity of each individual cable.
