Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
The standard aims to consolidate AC and traction voltages within the industry and defines the following bands: band 1 - A.C. systems 100 V to 1...
A load flow study is the analysis of an electrical network carried out by an electrical engineer. The purpose is to understand how power flows around...
Modelica is an open source (free) software language for modelling complex systems. Having never used it before, I thought I would download a development...
Often us engineers get so bogged down in equations, using software, producing drawings and writing specifications that this becomes the sole focus. ...
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...
