The document discusses the calculation of fault current in a power system using impedance diagrams and Zbus matrices. It provides two examples of calculating fault current when a three-phase symmetrical short circuit occurs at the terminals of a synchronous motor supplied by a generator through a transmission line. In the first example, the fault current is calculated to be 7124.7 A using the impedance diagram. In the second example, the fault current is calculated in two ways, either neglecting or not neglecting the pre-fault current, obtaining slightly different results.
