Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
When making adding a Note to our site we have a great online WYSIWYG editor and things are pretty simple. However, if you prefer you can write, manage...
This post is quick introduction and overview to different railway electrification voltages used in answer to a question sent in via email. While there...
Alternating current (a.c.) is the backbone of modern electrical power distribution. In this article I’ll be pulling some of the more important concepts...
GE have put together a time-lapse video shown flight take-off and landings at some airports. An interesting view:
The following tables provide quick order of magnitude fault levels for a a range of typical low voltage situations.
If you at all familiar with programs like office and outlook, then adding and editing posts is pretty straightforward and intuitive. However, there are...
I was having a conversation the other day about voltage levels. While everyone was in agreement that low voltage was 1000 V and less, there was more confusion...
This article gives an introduction to IEEE 485 method for the selection and calculation of battery capacity.
Years ago I was told that you should always try to write the best report you can. Many years later I still think on this as one of the better pieces of...
For unbalance conditions the calculation of fault currents is more complex. One method of dealing with this is symmetrical components. Using symmetrical...
