SHORT CIRCUIT ANALYTIC MOBILE HAS BEEN RELEASED
|
iSCA
V1.0 mobile app performs available short circuit fault current
calculations in three-phase electric power systems you are working
with. The app takes into consideration all of the key electrical
parameters of power distribution system including power supply,
cables, transformers and motors. The app automatically converts the
entire system into a unique impedance unit from which the short
circuit current and the X/R ratio of the circuit between the source
and the fault is calculated at each location.
The
source can be set as a transformer supply or a busbar with a
specified short circuit level. If a transformer source is used, the
short circuit level on the primary side can be set to infinity by
setting the data field blank.
Add components
one by one to build up a single line diagram. The components can be
cables, transformers and a motor. After a component has been added,
its data can be edited by clicking on the component when displayed on
the screen.
Click on 'Calculate' button to
estimate the short circuit currents at each busbar. The calculations
factor in short circuit current contributions from the source and
maximum of one motor only. Click on 'Mail' button to send all the
equipment data and calculation results by email.

User-friendly tool ★★★★★
by sanasaurus - Version 1.0.1 - Nov 26, 2013
An
accessible, easy to use tool and a comprehensive companion to Arcad's
PC software. The features are simple to navigate without compromising
on the range of options. I particularly appreciate the depth of
customization, down to the language selection. I am yet to come across
any glitches or bugs - considerable accomplishment for a new app.
Overall, very satisfied and would highly recommend the software and app
both.
Awesome! ★★★★★
by Jane Warren - Version 1.0.1 - Nov 22, 2013
I don't have any words! AWESOME!!! Easy to use and well done. Useful and accurate. Exactly what I wanted. Thnx.
