Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
Often document control is dictated by project requirements, for example a particular organisation may have an existing numbering system. Existing company...
Laplace transforms and their inverse are a mathematical technique which allows us to solve differential equations, by primarily using algebraic methods...
In three phase systems, the use of transformers with three windings (or legs) per side is common. These three windings are often connected in delta or...
Insulation on a motor prevents interconnection of windings and the winding to earth. When looking at motors, it is important to understand how the insulation...
Fault calculations are one of the most common types of calculation carried out during the design and analysis of electrical systems. These calculations...
The mobile phone was born in 1973. They were the size of a brick and weighed a couple of kg, making them difficult to fit into your pocket. At a few thousand...
A lot of our members work in countries where PPE (personal protective equipment) is regulated or they work for companies/organizations which take employee...
The other day I came across an article in Technology Review on the development of a smart transformer. A professor at North Carolina State University is...
Many questions sent in to the site are in connection with motor starting and in particular star-delta. For all but the simplest application, there is...
If you have no idea how electrical circuits work, or what people mean then they talk about volts and amps, hopefully I can shed a bit light. I’m intending...
