Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
Straight forward list of some common motor faults. If I have missed any other common faults, please take a bit of time to add them in as a comment below...
Problems on achieving maximum voltage drop within an installation come up often. Depending where you live, local regulations will have different limits...
Reading is a bit of a hobby of mine and I"ve done a few off-topic posts in the past on this. Rather than continue doing the occasional post I thought ...
IEC 60947 is the circuit breaker standard and covers the marking of breakers in detail. Any manufacturer following this standard should comply with the...

Often document control is dictated by project requirements, for example a particular organisation may have an existing numbering system. Existing company...
It's been a busy few months on different projects or busy couple of decades depending on how I look at it. I can say that on the odd (frequent) occasion...
Following on from my post on railway electrification voltages, I thought an introduction to traction substations would be a good idea. Traction substations...
