Short circuit fault condition KA

[kev2632]

Hi,
I'm just learning and I've got what is probably a stupid question here but I'd appreciate the help and a simple basic explanation of this.

Why is the KA rating fault current of a low voltage 440v switchboard higher than the high voltage 6.6KV ?

Thanks

The ASCC, Available Short Circuit Current is the rated full load current divided by the transformer percent impedance voltage.
You do the math:
A 1000 KVA transformer; what is the rated secondary current at 440Volts and at 6.6kVolts?

That's what I'm unsure on please if you could help/explain?

Thanks
