German term
harter Kurzschluss
German to English
Tech/Engineering
Electronics / Elect Eng
Bei hartem Kurzschluss reicht der max. Stellwert nicht mehr aus, um den Ausgangsstrom auf Nennstrom zu begrenzen.
Es geht um eine Spezifikation eines Schaltnetzteils.
Weiß jemand, was ein "harter Kurzschluss" ist und wie man ihn auf Englisch nennt?
Danke!

hard short (circuit)
as distinguished from an intermittent or weak short circuit

Overcurrent-Protection ICs Have Their Current Limits
However, the current limit usually allows a delay time before the circuit is actually interrupted. During a hard short, the current can rise rapidly: first ...

RE: [802.3af] Contradiction in Table 33-5
The drawing 33c.6 requires that you maintain at least 30V at Vport - how can you do that if it is a hard short while limiting the current to less than 450mA ...

"hard short" also means a short circuit with very low resistance, which thus allows a very high current to flow (limited only by the impedance of the source and the intermediate wiring).
