Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
Photovoltaic (PV) systems are typically more efficient when connected in parallel with a main power gird. During periods when the PV system generates energy...
Most installations involve some form of lightning protection system which is connected to an earth electrode. The function of the earth electrode is to...
Fault calculations are one of the most common types of calculation carried out during the design and analysis of electrical systems. These calculations...
Here’s list of some famous scientists. Deliberately short, with the aim to provide a quick memory jog or overview. If your looking for more detailed information...
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...
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.
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...
Over recent years the Lithium Ion battery has become popular in applications requiring high power densities with small weight and footprint. Today Lithium...
A single phase system is perhaps the most common type of system most people are familiar with. This is what people have in their homes and what appliances...
If two dissimilar metals are touching and an external conducting path exists, corrosion of one the metals can take place. Moisture or other materials...
