Electrical equipment - design, use and implementation
GE have put together a time-lapse video shown flight take-off and landings at some airports. An interesting view:
Traditionally generation of electricity has involved rotating machines to produce alternating sinusoidal voltage and current (a.c. systems). With the development...
Everything physical in electrical engineering from insulations to conductors revolves around materials. Here we are listing common materials along with...
I was reminded of Occam's Razor while reading a book. It's quite a simple principal of logic which has stood the test of time and is accepted as central...
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...

In the previous note we looked at the approach taken by the standard to the sizing of cables and illustrated this with an example. We then looked at one...
In a previous article I looked at the dc resistance of conductors and in this article we turn our attention to ac resistance. If you have not read the...
Two driverless and solar power vans have departed from Italy on their way to China via the silk road. During the 13,000 kM trip the vans will drive themselves...
