Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
Gauss's Electrical law defines the relation between charge ("Positive" & "Negative") and electric field. The law was initially formulated by Carl Friedrich...
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...
Following on from my post on railway electrification voltages, I thought an introduction to traction substations would be a good idea. Traction substations...
GE have put together a time-lapse video shown flight take-off and landings at some airports. An interesting view:
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...
If you have no idea how electrical circuits work, or what people mean then they talk about volts and amps, hopefully I can shed a bit light. I’m intending...
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.
The International System of Units (abbreviated SI) is the world's most widely used system of units. The system consists of a set of units and prefixes...
Electrical engineering has a multitude of laws and theorems. It is fair to say the Ohm's Law is one of the more widely known; it not the most known. Developed...
Fire resistant and fire retardant cable sheaths are design to resist combustion and limit the propagation of flames. Low smokes cables have a sheath designed...
