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...
In the previous note we looked at the approach taken by the standard to the sizing of cables and illustrated this with an example. We then looked at one...
"I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it is much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers that might be wrong...
Problems on achieving maximum voltage drop within an installation come up often. Depending where you live, local regulations will have different limits...
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...
Depending where in the world you work, you are likely following one of two standards International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) National...
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.
Traditionally substations have used circuit breakers, current transformers (CT), voltage transformers (VT) and protection relays all wired together using...
Gauss's Electrical law defines the relation between charge ("Positive" & "Negative") and electric field. The law was initially formulated by Carl Friedrich...
