What is output short circuit current?

The output short circuit current is the solar cell's current when the voltage is zero, or when it, is short circuited.


Why might the current in a short circuit be higher than the current in the original circuit?

The current in a short circuit may be very high because the resistance in the short circuit is probably less than the resistance in the original circuit.


What is the effect of transformer impedance on short circuit current?

Short circuit current will increase a lot.


What is short circuit ratio of an alternator?

Short circuit ratio is the ratio of field current required for the rated voltage at open circuit to the field current required for the rated armature current at short circuit


How short circuit current measure?

In shortg circuit current is infinitive.


What is short circuit ratio?

Ratio of field current required to produce rated voltage in open circuit to the field current required to produce rated current in short circuit.


What term is used to describe current that can flow in a circuit as a result of an undesired short circuit?

Generically, it's an 'overcurrent'; specifically, it's a 'short-circuit current'.


Will voltage or current be higher in a circuit during short circuit?

Since a short circuit is, essentially, a zero impedance connection between nodes, the current in a short circuit is limited only by the ability of the source. In the case of an ideal voltage source connected to an ideal short circuit, you would have infinite amperes.


What is the design value of short circuit ration of generator?

short circuit ratio is the ratio of field current to open short circuit voltage n the open circuit current. its value for thermal is less than hydro type.


What is the effect on the current when a short circuit occurs?

The current increases.


How short is a shortcircuit?

A short circuit is so short that all the current in the entire network prefers to pass through it! Actually, whenever in a network/circuit there are two parallel paths for the current to flow, the current chooses the path of least impedance. As such, a circuit with no impedance of any sort is called a short circuit cuz the entire current passes through it.
