    Error Pspice
Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on troubleshooting errors in PSPICE simulations. Users are encouraged to clarify the specific simulation and errors encountered. Suggestions include checking for connections, particularly between signal Vf and component C1, and correcting the directive line format by removing units from values. Additionally, it is advised to replace "x" with "*" for multiplication in expressions. Proper syntax and formatting are crucial for successful simulations in PSPICE.

Welcome to the PF. :smile:

Can you say more about what you are trying to simulate, and what errors you are getting? Thanks.
 
Looks like no connection between signal Vf and the top wire of C1.
 
Welcome to PF.
I question the directive line; .AC DEC 1000 100Hz 10MHz
Units should not be included in values.
In standard spice, milli is; m = M = 1e-3, while MEG = 1e6.
Try; .AC DEC 1000 100 10MEG

The second error is probably due to the use of "x" for multiply rather than "*".
Rather than "10x10^-9s" You may need to use something more like "10e-9*s"

I am trying to understand how transferring electric from the powerplant to my house is more effective using high voltage. The suggested explanation that the current is equal to the power supply divided by the voltage, and hence higher voltage leads to lower current and as a result to a lower power loss on the conductives is very confusing me. I know that the current is determined by the voltage and the resistance, and not by a power capability - which defines a limit to the allowable...
