  • Abstract
    Evaluation of the effects of a short-time irregular-shape current pulse on the conductors and devices through which such current pulses pass can be a perplexing problem to the industrial power system engineer, as well as to those working in other areas. The adverse effects may range from a nuisance mal-function in the overall circuit to a catastrophic explosive failure in power circuit equipment.
