APPENDIX A - Explanation of recommended methods for
taking into account non-adiabatic heating
effect when calculating permissible
short-circuit currents
The approach set out in this standard is to: a) calculate the adiabatic short-circuit current, b) calculate a modifying factor that takes account of the non-adiabatic heating effect, c) multiply a) and b) to obtain permissible short-circuit current.
