ARCAD, INC. has introduced the new DC Arc Flash Analytic (DCAFA V1.0) software program for arc flash and shock hazard analysis in DC power systems including but not limited to photovoltaics, battery banks, rectifiers and telecommunications equipment.

ARCAD announces the release of a set of new ARC FLASH ANALYTIC video tutorials. ARC FLASH ANALYTIC tutorials are videos providing a quick and easy method to learn a variety of ARC FLASH ANALYTIC features and capabilities. The set includes 8 video tutorials starting from how to install and register the program, to more advanced functions like how to save projects, switch units of measurement, customize arc flash warning label layout and perform arc flash hazard analysis using ARC FLASH ANALYTIC's IEEE 1584 Empirical Model, Fuse Equations and Low Voltage Circuit Breaker Equations calculation modes.

ARCAD is pleased to introduce the new ARC FLASH ANALYTIC ( AFA V4.1 ) software program for arc flash and shock hazard analysis. AFA V4.1 has been developed based on NFPA 70E and IEEE 1584 as an easy to use and comprehensive tool for calculating arc incident energy, flash protection boundary, determining limited, restricted, prohibited shock approach boundaries and risk category required by NEC, CEC and new Canadian Z462 standard when work is to be performed on or near the energized equipment.

It is estimated that 5 to 10 arc flash explosions occur in electric equipment everyday in the United States. These events have the potential to cause serious injuries and even death due to burns from the thermal radiation and intense light released. To address this problem, ARCAD developed arc flash software to estimate the incident energy released in the event of a fault, identify the required Protection Boundary, create arc flash warning labels and more.

Arc-Flash-Analytic v3.0 software for arc flash hazard analysis has been tested in the Softpedia labs using several industry-leading security solutions and found to be completely clean of adware/spyware components.
