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 advice. Not only does this apply ... read more..
Often us engineers get so bogged down in equations, using software, producing drawings and writing specifications that this becomes the sole focus. Good engineering design needs to go b... read more..
If you at all familiar with programs like office and outlook, then adding and editing posts is pretty straightforward and intuitive. However, there are...
In electrical engineering, Network Theory is the study of how to solve circuit problems. By analyzing circuits, the engineer looks to determine the various...
When current flows within a wire, a magnetic field is created. The potion of this magnetic field perpendicular to the wire is called the magnetic flux...
Traditionally generation of electricity has involved rotating machines to produce alternating sinusoidal voltage and current (a.c. systems). With the development...

Alternating current (a.c.) is the backbone of modern electrical power distribution. In this article I’ll be pulling some of the more important concepts...
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...
Fault calculations are one of the most common types of calculation carried out during the design and analysis of electrical systems. These calculations...
It wasn't so long ago I was telling someone that I don't use rules of thumb as most things are easily calculated anyhow. As it turns out I last week...
Depending where in the world you work, you are likely following one of two standards International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) National...
