Electrode Images Added to the Arc Flash Calculator -plus more


Hi Reader

I am just letting you know.

I added electrode images to the Arc Flash Calculator. Plus a few other improvements.

1. Electrode images

2. Model limit validations

I added the IEEE-1584 model limitations to the field validations, including voltage, conductor gap and enclosure size. For example:

2. Simplified equipment types

I reduced and simplified the list of typical equipment types. They are used to prefill the working distance, conductor gap and enclosure dimensions with typical values that you can change.

3. Improved layout on desktop and mobile

4. Improved report layout

Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.

I appreciate your feedback.

Hi Reader I am just letting you know. I added two options to optimise the earth cable sizing for high current installations in the Cable Size Calculator. Option: Ignore table 5.1 sizes Ignore earth sizes specified in Table 5.1 in AS/NZS 3000. Earth size will be based on fault current and loop impedance only. This option is available when: Parallel single-core cable groups are used. Check fault rating and Check loop impedance are enabled. The calculated earth size is ≥ 120 mm2 (copper) or ≥...
