Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
When selecting a cable, the performance of the cable under fault conditions is an important consideration. It is important that calculations be carried...
Often document control is dictated by project requirements, for example a particular organisation may have an existing numbering system. Existing company...
Gauss's Electrical law defines the relation between charge ("Positive" & "Negative") and electric field. The law was initially formulated by Carl Friedrich...
Straight forward list of some common motor faults. If I have missed any other common faults, please take a bit of time to add them in as a comment below...
Modelica is an open source (free) software language for modelling complex systems. Having never used it before, I thought I would download a development...

Following on from my post on railway electrification voltages, I thought an introduction to traction substations would be a good idea. Traction substations...
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.
This morning I was explaining how differential protection works to a junior engineer. To give him something to read I opened up the NPAG (Network Protection...
