Why to give a large MVA to this infinite machine and set its Xs = 0.01 or less when representing an SMIB ?

I'm trying to compare dynamics results with other software, and it only matches when i do this, why i would give a large MVA to an infinite machine ?

The short circuit power from a generator can be estimated to Mbase/Zsorce. Hence, a large Mbase and small Xsorce will lead to a very high short circuit power contribution to the bus, i.e. an infinite bus!

For example, Mbase=10 000 MVA, Xsorce=0.01 --> Short circuit power = 10 000/0.01 = 1 000 000 MVA.
