Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
Over the past year or so I've been involved in on going discussions related to referring fault levels from the secondary of a transformer to the primary...
Many medium voltage (MV) indoor switchgear rooms exist worldwide. The complexity of these rooms varies considerably depending on location, function and...
Earthing of electrical systems is essential for the correct functioning and the protecting of life and equipment in the event of faults. The earth electrode...
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...
Photovoltaic (PV) cells (sometimes called solar cells) convert solar energy into electrical energy. Every year more and more PV systems are installed...
Capacitors are widely used in electrical engineering for functions such as energy storage, power factor correction, voltage compensation and many others...
If you want to check a circuit is dead (not live), you should always use the three point method. First check a known live circuit, then check the dead...
Using laser optical pulses the random number generator utilizes the time between arrival of random photos to generate the numbers, ensuring true accuracy...
For the past few years I have reading eBooks on my HTC touch phone. On and off I have debated buying an eReader and recently purchased a Sony PRS-300 ...
Years ago I was told that you should always try to write the best report you can. Many years later I still think on this as one of the better pieces of...
