Greetings!

Arc Flash Newsletter is a quick update on electric arc flash and ARCAD solutions addressing the matter. This newsletter is free and will bring you up to date on the issues that surround arc flash and short circuit analysis. Visit us at www.arcadvisor.com for complete product offerings including free online arc flash, short circuit calculators, stand-alone PC and mobile software solutions for short-circuit, arc flash hazard analysis and labeling.

SHORT CIRCUIT ANALYTIC MOBILE HAS BEEN RELEASED  

ARCAD INC. announces the release of Short Circuit Analytic version 1.0 (iSCA V1.0) mobile app for iPhones, iPods and iPads.
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.
