Short-Circuit-Analytic1.0.7

The blood that flows through your computer’s veins is actually electricity. In fact, none of your modern devices run without electrical current, not even your car. It’s easier said than done to setup a circuit, but applications like Short-Circuit-Analytic are there to make sure there are less chances to fail or cause damage.

Can take some accommodation time

A short circuit occurs when damaging or excessive current travels through a low resistance piece of wire or encounters impedance, leading most of the times to a complete system failure. This application lets you insert all of your circuit data in order to determine weakest links and possibility of short circuit.The interface is pretty shallow in terms of design, with most space being occupied by the list of items you add. You find them in the upper toolbar, with short descriptions popping out on mouseover. It’s recommended to pay a visit to the help manual the first time, because the circuit is not created in conventional ways, while some menus or values can seem confusing.

Add different circuit elements and run analysis

Sadly, there aren’t any preset elements to get you quickly up and running, or any example, so you need to take some time and see how circuits are built. When created, each element brings up its own window with a set of corresponding value fields you need to accurately fill in.You start off with a utility unit, to which you need to link elements like transformers, motors, generators, cable, bus ducts, lighting and resistance loads, as well as electrical devices. Once created, you can edit them in case any mistakes are made, or simply view details to double-check.Hitting Run Analysis processes all of your values in an attempt to determine weakest link in your circuit. At last, a window is brought up to list faulty elements, alongs with related details and where you need to work. The report can also be saved locally as a TXT file.

In conclusion

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Short-Circuit-Analytic wants to help you reduce the chances of disaster before you go off to build an electric circuit. The only thing that keeps it from being a pro is visualization, which only enlists elements, making it rather difficult to properly construct a circuit.
