The (relatively new) switchgear and control gear standard, IEC 61439 'Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies' has three methods which can be...

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...

In the previous note we looked at the approach taken by the standard to the sizing of cables and illustrated this with an example.  We then looked at one...

This article gives an introduction to IEEE 485 method for the selection and calculation of battery capacity.

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

A frequent problem in fault calculations is the obtaining of equipment parameters.  While it is always preferable to use the actual parameters of the equipment...
