Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
In an earlier note on the site [Photovoltaic (PV) - Electrical Calculations], the theory of solar (PV) cell calculations was introduced. In particular...
I've been considering a blog on the 110 or 230 Volt issue for a while. While browsing the Internet I came across a great summary by Borat over at engineering...
Modelica is an open source (free) software language for modelling complex systems. Having never used it before, I thought I would download a development...
Collection of links to various places with useful motor information. I’ll try and return to the page every now and again to update it with any motor notes...
Over recent years the Lithium Ion battery has become popular in applications requiring high power densities with small weight and footprint. Today Lithium...
Traditionally substations have used circuit breakers, current transformers (CT), voltage transformers (VT) and protection relays all wired together using...
We have had the Wiki with us for a long time now, but at last I have decided to say bye bye – more details on why below.
Working in the vicinity of electrical equipment poses an hazard. In addition to electric shock hazard, fault currents passing through air causes Arc Flash...
Traditionally generation of electricity has involved rotating machines to produce alternating sinusoidal voltage and current (a.c. systems). With the development...
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...
