Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study of short-circuit currents in a 400/121/31,5/0,4 kV substation. Using the impedance method and the short-circuit power method, three-phase and two-phase short-circuit currents were determined at the main points of the substation scheme. The analysis of the obtained data shows a practical coincidence of the results achieved by the two methods.
