THE ANALYSIS OF SHORT-CIRCUIT CURRENTS IN A NAVAL ELECTRICAL NETWORK BY MEANS OF SOFTWARE TOOLS

Short circuits in naval electrical networks are complex phenomena affecting all electrical equipment due to the short length of circuits. The calculation of short circuit currents and their taking into account, ranging from design to the operation of naval equipment and installations, ensure the equipment reliability and optimization. Based on industry standard data, the paper analyzes the management of a particular ship power system, by performing the short-circuit current calculation based on a software tool, particularly designed for this purpose.
