Short circuit faults are called shunt faults. An open-circuit condition is known as a series fault. Any phase/circuit to ground condition is called a ground fault. Among all faults, a balanced 3-phase ...

I see techs in the field get the most frustrated when they have a low-voltage short they can’t seem to locate. The challenge techs face with low voltage diagnosis is a combination of poor process and ...

Further details of the setup and the results are provided in the study “ Outdoor implied open-circuit voltage imaging of perovskite solar cells using sunlight excitation,” published in Joule.

They look for all the world like short circuits or open circuits, and yet work their magic and act to match feedline impedances or even as bandpass filters.

Rosenstark’s brilliant idea was to perform a pair of loop measurements with the return side terminated first on an open circuit and then on a short circuit , and then to suitably combine the two ...
