(a) We use series reactors in a power system in order to to limit the current in case of a fault. During these fault conditions, extremely high currents may flow through the system. So if the the busbars and circuit breakers are not able to withstand the fault currents, they may get damaged and the protection of the system can be seriously decreased. This is called as the fault level of a ...
