Short Circuit Protection (SCP)

What is Short Circuit Protection (SCP)?

Short circuit protection (SCP) is a safety feature implemented in many power supplies to protect against the potentially damaging effects of short circuits.

A short circuit occurs when an electrical current travels along an unintended path, such as a direct connection between the positive and negative terminals of a power supply. This can cause a surge of current to flow through the circuit, which can damage components and potentially cause a fire or other safety hazards. To prevent such incidents, most power supplies are equipped with SCP circuitry that detects a short circuit and shuts down the power supply to prevent damage to the circuitry or any connected components. SCP circuits typically work by monitoring the output voltage and current of the power supply. If the output current exceeds a certain threshold, indicating a short circuit, the SCP circuitry will quickly shut down the power supply to prevent further damage. Some power supplies may also have other protective features, such as over-voltage protection (OVP), over-current protection (OCP), and over-temperature protection (OTP), which can protect against other types of potentially damaging conditions. However, SCP is one of the most important safety features in a power supply, as it can prevent potentially dangerous situations from occurring.
