Fundamental electrical engineering concepts and theory
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...
For the past few years I have reading eBooks on my HTC touch phone. On and off I have debated buying an eReader and recently purchased a Sony PRS-300 ...
I was having a conversation the other day about voltage levels. While everyone was in agreement that low voltage was 1000 V and less, there was more confusion...
Electrical engineering is a field that covers a wide variety of sub-fields, including electricity and electronics. It is a field that goes back to the...
This article gives an introduction to IEEE 485 method for the selection and calculation of battery capacity.
If you want to check a circuit is dead (not live), you should always use the three point method. First check a known live circuit, then check the dead...
The other day I was talking to a colleague who is a building services consultant. Despite regularly specifying dry-type/cast resin transformers he was...
Maxwell's Equations are a set of fundamental relationships, which govern how electric and magnetic fields interact. The equations explain how these fields...
One of the fundamental requirements of an alternating current distribution systems it to have the ability to change the magnitude of voltages. It is more...
Problems on achieving maximum voltage drop within an installation come up often. Depending where you live, local regulations will have different limits...
