Abstract
This paper analyzes how to calculate the three phase short circuit current calculation procedures used in the IEC 60909 short circuit. It presented the new procedure of the fault current for the interrupting capacity of the circuit breaker. This procedure is applied to the future power system and calculates the fault current. Power demands are increased because of the growth of the economy for this reason, the fault current of the power system is largely increased and the fault current procedure for the proper interrupting capacity calculation of the existing or the new circuit breaker is essential. How to calculate the three phase short circuit current for ac electrical system and select the high voltage and low voltage circuit breaker based on IEC 60909 standards.
