- Coordinated Power Engineering, Inc.'s Short Circuit and Coordination Studies are possibly the most important step toward ensuring safe and reliable electrical service. There is so much at risk if something goes wrong, so it is critical that power system protective devices be sized, set, and calibrated properly, as well as have the proper interrupting/withstand ratings. If a fault occurs, a current short circuit and protective device coordination analysis will ensure that the system will respond to the event to protect personnel and equipment, as well as with a minimum amount of downtime. The Coordination Study will determine the optimum protective device/settings to minimize the area of an outage in the event of a fault. A Short Circuit Study will determine the "worst case" fault level at each electrical distribution component. Fault levels are then compared to the interrupting rating of the existing devices to determine if the protective devices are rated properly.
