Power systems theory - generation, transmissions and distribution
"I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it is much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers that might be wrong...
The standard aims to consolidate AC and traction voltages within the industry and defines the following bands: band 1 - A.C. systems 100 V to 1...
Many medium voltage (MV) indoor switchgear rooms exist worldwide. The complexity of these rooms varies considerably depending on location, function and...
Collection of links to various places with useful motor information. I’ll try and return to the page every now and again to update it with any motor notes...
When current flows within a wire, a magnetic field is created. The potion of this magnetic field perpendicular to the wire is called the magnetic flux...
When selecting a generator, there are inherent limits on the active and reactive power which can be delivered. Generators are normally sized for a certain...
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...
We have had the Wiki with us for a long time now, but at last I have decided to say bye bye – more details on why below.
Three phase systems are derived from three separate windings, either connected in delta or star (wye). Each winding can be treated separately, leading...
IEEE TV has a part series of videos on wind power and it's implication. For a really good overview to the technologies and issues around wind power, these...
