III. DC ARC SUSTAINING TIME Those who calculate dc arc-flash incident energy manually using the Maximum Power [18] formulas found in NFPA 70E [2]have usually used dc arc sustaining times of 2 seconds (i n some cases longer in an effort to be more conservative), at least on the portions of the analyzed circuit where a fuse or

AC and DC Circuits | Differences, Components & Examples

Voltage Source: DC circuits are powered by a constant voltage source, such as a battery or a DC power supply. AC circuits are powered by an alternating voltage source, such as a generator or a transformer connected to the electrical grid. Frequency: DC circuits have a frequency of 0 Hz, as the current and voltage remain constant over time.

The calculation is the same as Ahr but multiplied by the battery voltage. So the 10 Ah, 1.2 V NiMh battery is 10 Ah * 1.2 V = 12 Whr. While the 10 Ah, 12 V Lead-Acid battery is 10 Ah * 12 V = 120 Whr, 10 times more! We can do the reverse also, a 120 Whr battery at 12 V means it is 120 Whr / 12 V = 10 Ah.
