Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
Modelica is an open source (free) software language for modelling complex systems. Having never used it before, I thought I would download a development...
Many questions sent in to the site are in connection with motor starting and in particular star-delta. For all but the simplest application, there is...
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...
Low voltage (LV) switchrooms are common across all industries and one of the more common spatial requirements which need to be designed into a project...
A battery consists of one or more cells, each of which use stored chemical energy to produce electrical energy, There are many types of cells and these...
Our question and answer system while letting you do exactly what it says, is much more. It is a dynamic user driven system, where our users not only ask...
Electromechanical relays have been the traditional backbone of electrical protection systems. While over recent years these have been replaced by microprocessor...
The windings of many medium and small sized transformers are protected by restricted earth fault (REF) systems. The illustration shows the principal of...
This is the second post in a series of two on periodic electrical inspections. In the first post, I discussed how often inspections should be carried out...
This article gives an introduction to IEEE 485 method for the selection and calculation of battery capacity.
