You are the engineer responsible for parameterizing the relay of a substation with a 500kVA transformer, transformation ratio of 13.8-0.38/0.22kV and impedance of 4.5%. The local network sent you a new equivalent impedance at the delivery point and the relay installed in the primary cabin activated function 50, disabling the medium voltage switch. Remembering that the primary cabin has a protective CT of 150:5A and TP with a transformation ratio of 13800/R3:115/R3 resulting in an RTP of 120:1. A) Calculate the symmetrical three-phase short circuit level in the primary cabinet to determine the current passing through the relay reading during a fault.
