Over the past year or so I've been involved in on going discussions related to referring fault levels from the secondary of a transformer to the primary...

Control theory looks at how systems work and are controlled from a mathematical view.  This note gives a brief introduction to some of the concepts – more...

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

Using laser optical pulses the random number generator utilizes the time between arrival of random photos to generate the numbers, ensuring true accuracy...

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...

This post is quick introduction and overview to different railway electrification voltages used in answer to a question sent in via email. While there...

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...

For unbalance conditions the calculation of fault currents is more complex. One method of dealing with this is symmetrical components. Using symmetrical...

It's been a busy few months on different projects or busy couple of decades depending on how I look at it. I can say that on the odd (frequent) occasion...

The other day I was talking to a colleague who is a building services consultant.  Despite regularly specifying dry-type/cast resin transformers he was...
