electricpy.fault.pktransrecvolt(C, L, R=0, VLL=None, VLN=None, freq=60)[source]¶

Peak Transient Recovery Function.

Peak Transient Recovery Voltage calculation function, evaluates the peak transient recovery voltage (restriking voltage) and the Rate-of-Rise-Recovery Voltage.

Parameters:¶

C : float¶

Capacitance Value in Farads.

L : float¶

Inductance in Henries.

R : float, optional¶

The resistance of the system used for calculation, default=0.

VLL : float, exclusive¶

Line-to-Line voltage, exclusive optional argument.

VLN : float, exclusive¶

Line-to-Neutral voltage, exclusive optional argument.

freq : float, optional¶

System frequency in Hz.

Returns:¶

• Vcpk (float) – Peak Transient Recovery Voltage in volts.

• RRRV (float) – The RRRV (Rate-of-Rise-Recovery Voltage) calculated given the parameters in volts per second.
