Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
Three phase systems are derived from three separate windings, either connected in delta or star (wye). Each winding can be treated separately, leading...
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...
IEEE TV has a part series of videos on wind power and it's implication. For a really good overview to the technologies and issues around wind power, these...
Low voltage (LV) switchrooms are common across all industries and one of the more common spatial requirements which need to be designed into a project...
Alternating current (a.c.) is the backbone of modern electrical power distribution. In this article I’ll be pulling some of the more important concepts...
Often us engineers get so bogged down in equations, using software, producing drawings and writing specifications that this becomes the sole focus. ...
If your are ever called out to troubleshoot something on your electrical system, one of the first things consider is the supply voltage. You want to ensure...
