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...
Electrical engineering has a multitude of laws and theorems. It is fair to say the Ohm's Law is one of the more widely known; it not the most known. Developed...
If two dissimilar metals are touching and an external conducting path exists, corrosion of one the metals can take place. Moisture or other materials...
One of the fundamental requirements of an alternating current distribution systems it to have the ability to change the magnitude of voltages. It is more...
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...
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...
A recurring theme on our forums is cable sizing. Now many installations are unique and require special consideration. However, a lot of the time things...
Dielectrics (insulating materials for example) when subjected to a varying electric field, will have some energy loss. The varying electric field causes...
Lamps are the essential part of any luminaire. These are the light generating components. Since the advent of electrical lighting in the middle of the...
