This is the first of two posts on the resistance of conductors. In the next post I will look at the ac resistance, including skin effect and we deal with...

Gauss's Electrical law defines the relation between charge ("Positive" & "Negative") and electric field.  The law was initially formulated by Carl Friedrich...

In three phase systems, the use of transformers with three windings (or legs) per side is common.  These three windings are often connected in delta or...

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the study of coordinating electromagnetic fields give off equipment, with the withstand (compatibility) of other...

Problems on achieving maximum voltage drop within an installation come up often. Depending where you live, local regulations will have different limits...

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...

Everything physical in electrical engineering from insulations to conductors revolves around materials. Here we are listing common materials along with...

The calculation of current in a three phase system has been brought up on our site feedback and is a discussion I seem to get involved in every now and...
