Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
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...
Coils of wire on the rotor carry a d.c. current which generates a magnetic field. A stator magnetic field is created using either permanent magnets or...
Cable insulation is used to provide electrical separation between conductors of a cable. During the historical development of cables, numerous types...
I've been considering a blog on the 110 or 230 Volt issue for a while. While browsing the Internet I came across a great summary by Borat over at engineering...
The calculation of current in a three phase system has been brought up on our site feedback and is a discussion I seem to get involved in every now and...
Photovoltaic (PV) systems are typically more efficient when connected in parallel with a main power gird. During periods when the PV system generates energy...
When looking at the design of a lighting scheme it is useful to have an understanding on the nature of light itself and some of the basic theory associated...
While not as popular as it once was, frame leakage protection does still have some use in some circumstances. In essence frame leakage is an earth fault...
GE have put together a time-lapse video shown flight take-off and landings at some airports. An interesting view:
