I've been considering a blog on the 110 or 230 Volt issue for a while.  While browsing the Internet I came across a great summary by Borat over at  engineering...

If you have no idea how electrical circuits work, or what people mean then they talk about volts and amps, hopefully I can shed a bit light.  I’m intending...

Low voltage (LV) switchrooms are common across all industries and one of the more common spatial requirements which need to be designed into a project...

Our IEE cable sizing was wrote a few years ago and had become rough around the edges. I thought it was time to give the tool a service. Unfortunately when...

When selecting a cable, the performance of the cable under fault conditions is an important consideration. It is important that calculations be carried...

Modelica is an open source (free) software language for modelling complex systems. Having never used it before, I thought I would download a development...

I was having a conversation the other day about voltage levels.  While everyone was in agreement that low voltage was 1000 V and less, there was more confusion...

I have been thinking recently that there appears to be less professional integrity around than when I first started my career in electrical engineering...

There are a lot of interesting two page type notes on various medium voltage topics – switchgear, circuit breakers, bus systems etc. It is on the Siemens...

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...
