Capacitors are widely used in electrical engineering for functions such as energy storage, power factor correction, voltage compensation and many others...

A load flow study is the analysis of an electrical network carried out by an electrical engineer. The purpose is to understand how power flows around...

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.

The International System of Units (abbreviated SI) is the world's most widely used system of units.  The system consists of a set of units and prefixes...

GE have put together a time-lapse video shown flight take-off and landings at some airports. An interesting view:

The windings of many medium and small sized transformers are protected by restricted earth fault (REF) systems. The illustration shows the principal of...

When sizing cables, the heat generated  by losses within any sheath or armour need to be evaluated. When significant, it becomes a factor to be considered...

The term 'N+1' relates to redundancy and simply means that if you required 'N' items of equipment for something to work, you would have one additional...

Maxwell's Equations are a set of fundamental relationships, which govern how electric and magnetic fields interact. The equations explain how these fields...

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...
