Autotransformer Fault Calculations

This document provides an impedance worksheet and calculations for a 400kV transformer. It calculates positive and zero sequence impedances for the transformer and connected system. It then uses these values to determine fault currents for 3-phase and line-to-ground faults on the high voltage and low voltage sides. For each fault, it calculates the fault current and determines the resulting currents in each transformer winding and in the neutral/tertiary winding.
