In daily operation process,the results of online short-circuit current calculation and fault wave recording is different, the differences between the two results affected the dispatcher’s decision. In-depth analysis of the calculation process and finding the possible causes of the differences should be done. The on-line PSASP short-circuit current calculation based on power flow and scheme was studied. The boundary conditions and calculation models of two methods were studied, the influence of the modeling scope and equivalent circuits to the short-circuit current was also studied. Fault wave recording calculated short-circuit current through forward calculation, the middle to both sides calculation and backward calculation, and the differences of the three calculation mode were also analyzed. Through the above analysis and comparison, online data equivalent to 220kV high voltage side of the transformer greatly impacts short-circuit current, but effective value calculation method of fault wave recording has a little impact on the short-circuit current, mainly in the following reasons, the first one is that non-dispatching power plant is equivalent to a load, the second one is that several different types of load is equivalent to a load using one load model, the third one is that all devices connecting to low voltage side of the 220kV transformers are equivalent to 220kV. Conclusions of the analysis can provide the basis for the practical work of online short-circuit current calculation.
