Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
In 2011, with the introduction of it’s Panda search ranking algorithms, Google introduced tools for determining the original author of posts. The intention...
Problems on achieving maximum voltage drop within an installation come up often. Depending where you live, local regulations will have different limits...
Over recent years the Lithium Ion battery has become popular in applications requiring high power densities with small weight and footprint. Today Lithium...
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.
Per unit fault calculations is a method whereby system impedances and quantities are normalised across different voltage levels to a common base. By removing...
Motor starting and its associated problems are well-known to many people who have worked on large industrial processes. However, these things are, of course...
I'm a fan of using manufacturers catalogues. There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, if your involved in the purchase of equipment, you will likely...
When thinking about watts (W) or kilowatt (kW = 1000 W) it can be useful too keep in mind the fundamental ideas behind the unit. Watt is not a pure electrical...
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...
A frequent problem in fault calculations is the obtaining of equipment parameters. While it is always preferable to use the actual parameters of the equipment...
