While there are a vast array of cable insulation materials, these are often divided into two general types; Thermoplastic or Thermosetting. For example...
Cable insulation is used to provide electrical separation between conductors of a cable. During the historical development of cables, numerous types...
This post is quick introduction and overview to different railway electrification voltages used in answer to a question sent in via email. While there...
GE have put together a time-lapse video shown flight take-off and landings at some airports. An interesting view:
Dielectrics (insulating materials for example) when subjected to a varying electric field, will have some energy loss. The varying electric field causes...
The fundamental component of any analogue computer is the operational amplifier, or op amp. An operational amplifier (often called an op-amp,) is a high...
If you are working on a large plan, get the real coordinates [latitude, longitude] for two or more points and add them to the drawing. That way you can...
Nikola Tesla was born exactly at midnight on July 10, 1856 in the tiny village of Smiljan, Lika in Croatia. In his late teens, Tesla left the village to...
Problems on achieving maximum voltage drop within an installation come up often. Depending where you live, local regulations will have different limits...
Gauss's Electrical law defines the relation between charge ("Positive" & "Negative") and electric field. The law was initially formulated by Carl Friedrich...
