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

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

A UPS is an uninterruptible power supply.  It is a device which maintains a continuous supply of electrical power, even in the event of failure of the...

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...

The following tables provide quick order of magnitude fault levels for a a range of typical low voltage situations.

Our question and answer system while letting you do exactly what it says, is much more.  It is a dynamic user driven system, where our users not only ask...

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...

It starts with me reading one of the Horrible History books with my son (Groovy Greeks). Arrows were mentioned which lead to the discussion of the bodkin...

Years ago I was told that you should always try to write the best report you can.  Many years later I still think on this as one of the better pieces of...
