In order to investigate effects of neutrals and system grounding on the operation of the distribution feeders with faults, in this research a hybrid short circuit algorithm is generalized. In this novel use of the technique, the neutral wire and assumed ground conductor are explicitly represented. Results obtained from several case studies using IEEE 34-node test network are presented and discussed.888-892engFour-wire distribution networkShort circuit analysisElectric currentsElectric fault currentsElectric potentialElectric power systemsSafety factorWire productsDistribution feedersNeutral wireElectric power distributionInvestigating effects of neutral wire and grounding in distribution systems with faultsTrabalho apresentado em eventoAcesso aberto2-s2.0-32044447216
