Fault Current Calculator

This document provides calculations to coordinate the settings of protective relays on a feeder line. It lists inputs like the feeder load current, fault current ranges, and relay characteristics. The outputs include the pick-up current settings for the low current and high current elements of the relay, as well as time delay settings to ensure proper grading between the relay and upstream protective device.
