This paper describes the exact short-circuit current calculation technique for the single-phase transformer which is installed in the three-phase systems and shorted in the secondary side. Not only the results for a short-circuit current calculation in the existing literatures are wrong, but also little literature deals with the short-circuit current for a single-phase transformer. So, this paper presents a theoretical study and calculation method for a single-phase short current. The validity of the presented method is investigated through Simulation using "Power Tools" and "PSim" program.
