  2. Short circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit

    In circuit analysis, a short circuit is defined as a connection between two nodes that forces them to be at the same voltage. In an 'ideal' short circuit, this means there is no resistance and thus no voltage drop across the connection. In real circuits, the result is a connection with almost no resistance.

    A PDF creator and virtual PDF printer for Microsoft Windows PDF-XChange: Proprietary: Yes: PDF Tools allows creation of PDFs from many types of source input (images, scans, etc.). The PDF-XChange print driver allows printing directly to a PDF. A "lite" version of the print driver is free for non-commercial (home and academic) use. PrimoPDF ...

  4. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

    The short circuit ratio (SCR) is an indicator of the strength of a network bus about the rated power of a device and is frequently used as a measure of system strength. A higher SCR value indicates a stronger system, meaning that the impact of disturbances on voltage and other variables will be minimized.

  5. Foxit PDF Reader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxit_PDF_Reader

    Foxit PDF Reader (formerly Foxit Reader) is a multilingual freemium PDF (Portable Document Format) tool that can create, view, edit, digitally sign, and print PDF files. [3] Foxit Reader is developed by Fuzhou, China-based Foxit Software. Early versions of Foxit Reader were notable for startup performance and small file size. [4]

  6. Failure of electronic components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_of_electronic...

    A resistor removed from a high voltage tube circuit shows damage from voltaic arcing on the resistive metal oxide layer. Resistors can fail open or short, alongside their value changing under environmental conditions and outside performance limits. Examples of resistor failures include: Manufacturing defects causing intermittent problems.

  7. Short Circuit (novel) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_Circuit_(novel)

    Dave Langford reviewed Short Circuit for White Dwarf #87, and stated that "I haven't seen the film, but the novelization is taut and funny: ultimate weapons which fancy themselves at disco dancing are OK by me." [1]

  8. Breaking capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaking_capacity

    The prospective short-circuit current that can occur under short circuit conditions should not exceed the rated breaking capacity of the apparatus, otherwise breaking of the current cannot be guaranteed. The current breaking capacity corresponds to a certain voltage, so an electrical apparatus may have more than one breaking capacity current ...

  9. Prospective short-circuit current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prospective_short-circuit...

    The effect of too high short-circuit current is discussed in the previous section. The short-circuit current should be around 20 times the rating of the circuit to ensure the branch circuit protection clears a fault quickly. Quick disconnecting is needed, because during a line-to-ground short circuit the grounding pin potential on the power ...
