Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
When selecting a cable, the performance of the cable under fault conditions is an important consideration. It is important that calculations be carried...
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...
Power factor is the ratio between the real power (P in kW) and apparent power (S in kVA) drawn by an electrical load. The reactive power (Q in kVAr)...
Often document control is dictated by project requirements, for example a particular organisation may have an existing numbering system. Existing company...
If you are wondering what happened to our cable notes, the short answer is that we have moved them to myCableEngineering.com. The "Knowledge Base" at...
Everything physical in electrical engineering from insulations to conductors revolves around materials. Here we are listing common materials along with...
I think this post is going to be helpful to several of our readers. While the IEC low voltage circuit breaker Standard [IEC 60947-2, Low voltage switchgear...
Maxwell's Equations are a set of fundamental relationships, which govern how electric and magnetic fields interact. The equations explain how these fields...
A lot of our members work in countries where PPE (personal protective equipment) is regulated or they work for companies/organizations which take employee...
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.
