Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
This post is quick introduction and overview to different railway electrification voltages used in answer to a question sent in via email. While there...
Famed English chemist and physicist Michael Faraday was born on September 22, 1791, in Newington Butts, a suburb of Surrey just south of the London Bridge...
Maxwell's Equations are a set of fundamental relationships, which govern how electric and magnetic fields interact. The equations explain how these fields...
We have a sister note to this (Robots - Interesting Video), in which I have posted some videos of interesting robots developed by commercial corporations...
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...
Problems on achieving maximum voltage drop within an installation come up often. Depending where you live, local regulations will have different limits...
Current transformers (CTs) are used to convert high level currents to a smaller more reasonable level for use as inputs to protection relays and metering...
When thinking about watts (W) or kilowatt (kW = 1000 W) it can be useful too keep in mind the fundamental ideas behind the unit. Watt is not a pure electrical...
Bored at work and would rather be playing trump card game with you son. The next best thing (or not) maybe the online cable trump card game from AEI Cables...
A single phase system is perhaps the most common type of system most people are familiar with. This is what people have in their homes and what appliances...
