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.

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

If you want to check a circuit is dead (not live), you should always use the three point method. First check a known live circuit, then check the dead...

Power factor is the ratio between the real power (P in kW) and apparent power (S in kVA) drawn by an electrical load. The reactive power (Q in kVAr)...

Anyone specifying or using electric motors should have a basic understanding how the insulation is related to temperature. Three classes of insulation...

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

When selecting a generator, there are inherent limits on the active and reactive power which can be delivered. Generators are normally sized for a certain...

Power cables can basically be classified into earthed and unearthed cables, where earthed and unearthed refer to the application for which the cable is...

Induction motors are frequently used in both industrial and domestic applications.  Within the induction motor, an electrical current in the rotor is induced...

Here’s list of some famous scientists. Deliberately short, with the aim to provide a quick memory jog or overview. If your looking for more detailed information...
