-For utility transformers, a worst-case estimate of available short-circuit current in a three-phase fault can be determined by dividing the transformer ampere rating by the impedance of the transformer. This assumes an infinite utility bus with unlimited current; as this is rarely if ever the case, actual fault current will be limited by available utility bus current. +For utility transformers, a worst-case estimate of available short-circuit current in a three-phase fault can be determined by dividing the transformer ampere rating by the impedance of the transformer.((https://www.jcalc.net/transformer-short-circuit-fault-current-calculator)) This assumes an infinite utility bus with unlimited current; as this is rarely if ever the case, actual fault current will be limited by available utility bus current.
