Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
We've been sending out Newsletters on a regular basis for a few weeks now. To do this we have been using Google's Feedburner service. While Feedburner...
Traditionally substations have used circuit breakers, current transformers (CT), voltage transformers (VT) and protection relays all wired together using...
Three phase systems are derived from three separate windings, either connected in delta or star (wye). Each winding can be treated separately, leading...
Fault calculations are one of the most common types of calculation carried out during the design and analysis of electrical systems. These calculations...
The inventor of the first visible light-emitting diode makes history again this year as it begins to show customers a 40-watt replacement GE Energy Smart...
Everything physical in electrical engineering from insulations to conductors revolves around materials. Here we are listing common materials along with...
When selecting a cable, the performance of the cable under fault conditions is an important consideration. It is important that calculations be carried...
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...
The IET site has a video of a visit showing of a high tech meeting room developed at Napier University in Edinburgh. It a good demonstration of innovative...
