Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
One of the fundamental requirements of an alternating current distribution systems it to have the ability to change the magnitude of voltages. It is more...
Our IEE cable sizing was wrote a few years ago and had become rough around the edges. I thought it was time to give the tool a service. Unfortunately when...
In three phase systems, the use of transformers with three windings (or legs) per side is common. These three windings are often connected in delta or...
The other day I came across an article in Technology Review on the development of a smart transformer. A professor at North Carolina State University is...
Motor starting and its associated problems are well-known to many people who have worked on large industrial processes. However, these things are, of course...
