I don't know if this is the correct forum, but I need to know what kind of mechanical loading (I would assume shock load) is produced when a 22kV circuit is shorted. Experience from real life says that a wall some distance away (approx 0.5 m) is destroyed (part of the wall blown away).

Can anyone point me to where I can find information??

Thanks a lot!
