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...
Light Emitting Diodes (LED ) are increasing gaining favour in both the domestic and commercial sectors; due to their efficiency, sustainability and durability...
There are a lot of interesting two page type notes on various medium voltage topics – switchgear, circuit breakers, bus systems etc. It is on the Siemens...
If you have no idea how electrical circuits work, or what people mean then they talk about volts and amps, hopefully I can shed a bit light. I’m intending...
Over the past year or so I've been involved in on going discussions related to referring fault levels from the secondary of a transformer to the primary...
A fundamental concept behind the operation of alternating current systems is that voltage and current waveforms will be sinusoidal – a Sine Wave. This...
Cable insulation is used to provide electrical separation between conductors of a cable. During the historical development of cables, numerous types...
Electrical engineering has a multitude of laws and theorems. It is fair to say the Ohm's Law is one of the more widely known; it not the most known. Developed...
When selecting a cable, the performance of the cable under fault conditions is an important consideration. It is important that calculations be carried...
Collection of links to various places with useful motor information. I’ll try and return to the page every now and again to update it with any motor notes...
