The calculation of greatest fault current of system is required for calculation of the capacity of the switchgear or bus bar or cable. The source of the supply will be the consideration.The MVA/kVA capacity of the transformer or generator which is the source. The simple equation to find the short circuit current is 1.1 x V L I = --------------- Amps √ 3 x Z I - short circuit current Line voltage is multiplied by 1.1 to take care of 10% rise in voltage Z Impedance in ohms % Z x10 x kV 2 Z = --------------------- kVA Detailed calculation method is available in www. ecmweb.com You must read it if you are really interested to learn the subject. There are so much reading material on the subject in the net itself Similarly read this link http://books.Google.co.in/books?id=yiT9Doq8TRwC&pg=PA184&lpg=PA184&dq=short+circuit+calculation+of+bus+bar+&source=web&ots=L1ww-bULxl&sig=Ker1LfRB8E9pWC5-fKnyNqPi_K0&hl=en#PPA184,M1

by using this formula where y=data values at times i and j and n=length of the data set and Under the null hypothesis that yi are independent and randomly ordered, the statistic S is approximately normally distributed when n≥8, with zero mean and variance as follows: The standardized test statistic ZS is computed by: Decide on a probability level of significance (95% typically) The trend is said to be decreasing if ZS is negative and the computed probability is greater than the level of significance. The trend is said to be increasing if the ZS is positive and the computed probability is greater than the level of significance. If the computed probability is less than the level of significance, there is no trend. you can use Excel to compute the equations. Tq
