The IET site has a video of a visit showing of a high tech meeting room developed at Napier University in Edinburgh. It a good demonstration of innovative...
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...
The following tables provide quick order of magnitude fault levels for a a range of typical low voltage situations.
Maxwell's Equations are a set of fundamental relationships, which govern how electric and magnetic fields interact. The equations explain how these fields...
Lead acid batteries are cost effect and reliable, making them suitable for many applications.This note examines topics of interest associated with the...
Following on from my post on railway electrification voltages, I thought an introduction to traction substations would be a good idea. Traction substations...
When sizing cables nearly, everyone uses some form of software. This ranges from homespun spreadsheets to complex network analyses software. Each has its...
Laplace transforms and their inverse are a mathematical technique which allows us to solve differential equations, by primarily using algebraic methods...
The calculation of current in a three phase system has been brought up on our site feedback and is a discussion I seem to get involved in every now and...
