Power systems theory - generation, transmissions and distribution
Per unit fault calculations is a method whereby system impedances and quantities are normalised across different voltage levels to a common base. By removing...
A couple of months ago I came Microsoft's OneNote and downloaded the 60 day free trail. Since then I have been using it regularly and now have a full license...
When looking at the design of a lighting scheme it is useful to have an understanding on the nature of light itself and some of the basic theory associated...
This is the second post in a series of two on periodic electrical inspections. In the first post, I discussed how often inspections should be carried out...
This post is quick introduction and overview to different railway electrification voltages used in answer to a question sent in via email. While there...
I've recently come across this question a couple times browsing the internet. Decided to give a quick answer here. A rectifier transformer is a transformer...
The other day I came across an article in Technology Review on the development of a smart transformer. A professor at North Carolina State University is...
Following on from my post on railway electrification voltages, I thought an introduction to traction substations would be a good idea. Traction substations...
Modelica is an open source (free) software language for modelling complex systems. Having never used it before, I thought I would download a development...
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...
