### 1.8.0 — 2026-05-29

v1.8.0: Accuracy & polish update

Calculator fixes:
• Demand Load, corrected the current calculation so main switch recommendations are accurate
• Short Circuit, proper breaker capacity recommendations and corrected I²t units
• Transformer, fixed the current ratio (was showing the inverse on step-down transformers)
• Earth Fault Loop, Zs now temperature-corrected per AS/NZS 3000, with a new Type B/C/D breaker curve selector
• Motor Sizing, voltage and phase are now locked together so they can't disagree
• Conduit Fill, temperature derating now rounds up to the next bucket (conservative, per AS/NZS 3008)

Stability:
• Fixed an app crash when viewing certain AS/NZS 3000 clauses (thanks to the sparky who flagged it at trade school)

Polish:
• Inputs no longer hide under the keyboard
• Dark mode tightened across Conduit Fill and Offset Bend
• VoiceOver labels added to every calculator field for accessibility
