A frequent problem in fault calculations is the obtaining of equipment parameters.  While it is always preferable to use the actual parameters of the equipment...

Capacitors are widely used in electrical engineering for functions such as energy storage, power factor correction, voltage compensation and many others...

When selecting a cable, the performance of the cable under fault conditions is an important consideration. It is important that calculations be carried...

Fault calculations are one of the most common types of calculation carried out during the design and analysis of electrical systems. These calculations...

Request to look at induction motor starting time have come up a few times on the site. Hopefully in this post, I give you guys some idea on how to calculate...

Most installations involve some form of lightning protection system which is connected to an earth electrode.  The function of the earth electrode is to...

Everything physical in electrical engineering from insulations to conductors revolves around materials. Here we are listing common materials along with...

Over the past year or so I've been involved in on going discussions related to referring fault levels from the secondary of a transformer to the primary...

Traditionally generation of electricity has involved rotating machines to produce alternating sinusoidal voltage and current (a.c. systems). With the development...

Steel ladders, trays and baskets form the backbone of cable containment systems. Often these items need some form of surface treatment to prevent corrosion...
