DC Experts. At Your Fingertips.
DC Expert support connects you directly with engineers who have designed, simulated, and commissioned real DC power systems. Get answers from people who can look at your diagram and tell you what will happen.
The industry is sprinting toward 800VDC. NVIDIA says every next-gen AI factory needs it. Rack power is crossing 1 MW.
And the engineering knowledge hasn't caught up. There are no standardized DC clearing curves. No arc flash boundary calculations at 800V. The breaker ecosystem at this voltage is still maturing. Some datacenters are running their own protection tests because no applicable guidelines exist. If you're designing a DC power system today, whether it's an 800V datacenter or a 380V building microgrid, the standards trail the hardware by years.
The engineers who know how these systems actually behave learned it the only way available: they built them.
Now they're inside DCIDE.
DC Expert support connects you directly with engineers who have designed, simulated, and commissioned real DC power systems. Not a chatbot. Not a knowledge base. People who can look at your diagram and tell you what's going to happen when you close the breaker.
I need to size DC protection for an 800V bus with no published clearing curves. Where do I start?
Will this EV charger work on my 380V bus, or does it need its own converter?
My sim shows overvoltage at peak PV. Is it a real problem or a modeling artifact?
Questions like these used to mean days of digging through application notes and vendor calls that go nowhere. Now you type the question into DCIDE and get a direct answer from someone who's solved it before.
We built DCIDE to be the workspace where DC power systems get designed. Expert support is the missing piece: the experience layer that closes the gap between where the industry is going and what the textbooks cover. Open your project. Ask the question you've been stuck on.
How to get started?
It's simple! Go to an existing project or create a new one and ask your question in the project's chat.
