Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
I was reminded of Occam's Razor while reading a book. It's quite a simple principal of logic which has stood the test of time and is accepted as central...
The new standard IEC 61439 replaces the old 60439. Compared to the old standard, the new 61439 is a more clearly defined and takes into account the assembly...
The following tables provide quick order of magnitude fault levels for a a range of typical low voltage situations.
Following on from my post on railway electrification voltages, I thought an introduction to traction substations would be a good idea. Traction substations...
The European Union is implementing a voluntary code of practice for participants with the aim of improving the overall efficiency of data centres. As part...

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...
Delum, who had watched all in silence, his face empty of expression, now spoke in turn. ' "Lead us, Warleader, into glory."' Reading is something I do...
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...
The standard aims to consolidate AC and traction voltages within the industry and defines the following bands: band 1 - A.C. systems 100 V to 1...
