capabilities, enabling you to save your circuit breaker test results in a database for future recall and report 
generation.  WinHC also gives you complete remote control capability, allowing you to perform all tests 
from your computer. 
 

Installation 

 

If you have purchased a new circuit breaker test set, then WinHC will be pre-installed and tested on the 
accompanying notebook computer.  No further software installation or setup is required.  If you should ever 
need to re-install the software, here are the system requirements and the installation procedure.
