Description

Block Open Circuit It is a completely isolated contact, that is, the current through it is identically zero.

You can use this unit as a plug for electrical ports on other units that you want to leave unplugged.

You can also use this block to set the initial value of the potential in the circuit node.

Ports

Undirected

V — zero current port
electricity

An electrical port that does not conduct current.

Parameters

Initial value of voltage v — initial value of the potential of the pass node:q[<br>] 0 (by default)

The initial value of the node potential.
