Power systems theory - generation, transmissions and distribution
Depending where in the world you work, you are likely following one of two standards International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) National...
Cable insulation is used to provide electrical separation between conductors of a cable. During the historical development of cables, numerous types...
This post is quick introduction and overview to different railway electrification voltages used in answer to a question sent in via email. While there...
Just added a page to the tools, which will allow you to calculate the synchronous speed, slip and rated torque for an induction motor. Not a particularly...
Per unit fault calculations is a method whereby system impedances and quantities are normalised across different voltage levels to a common base. By removing...
Dielectrics (insulating materials for example) when subjected to a varying electric field, will have some energy loss. The varying electric field causes...
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...
Control theory looks at how systems work and are controlled from a mathematical view. This note gives a brief introduction to some of the concepts – more...
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...
Over the past year or so I've been involved in on going discussions related to referring fault levels from the secondary of a transformer to the primary...
