| Basic DC Incident energy calculator | |||||||
| Based on 2007 IEEE Electrical safety workshop | |||||||
| Inputs to calculator - Please complete boxes highlighted below | |||||||
| Ibf | System bolted fault current, amps | ||||||
| Vsys | System Voltage, volts | ||||||
| Tarc | Arcing time, seconds | ||||||
| D | Working distance, cm | ||||||
| Results of Calculation - Open arc | |||||||
| Iarc | Arcing current, amps (0.5 x Ibf) | 0 | |||||
| Iemo | Incident Energy at maximum power point, cal/cm2 | 0.00 | |||||
| Results of Calculation - Box arc | |||||||
| Iemb | Incident Energy at maximum power point, cal/cm2 | 0.00 | |||||
| Notes: | |||||||
| - Only to be used up to 1000VDC | |||||||
| - Results of this calculator are conservative and will generally give a "high" result. | |||||||
