DC motors are electrical devices which draw electricity (direct current) and convert it into mechanical energy. They have many uses in today’s industries, even though alternating current is the preferred choice for mains power supply. They are especially useful for machines that need to be driven at variable speeds.
DC motors are easy to miniaturize, […]
Safety switches are devices that monitor the movement of current through electrical wiring and disconnect the supply of electricity upon detecting differences or imbalances. They react to even the tiniest change within a fraction of a second, cutting off the power if there’s a leak of electricity to ground, a power board is overloaded, […]
It is crucial to have proper electrical connections in your home, office or place of business since faults or failures in the system pose a serious risk in terms of electrocution, fire damage and short circuits.
Whether you’re working in the electrical industry or tackling a project on your own, or planning to move out […]
Much like overhead transmission lines, underground electrical cables and other ancillary facilities can experience problems if they aren’t properly maintained. For instance,
High Pressure Fluid and Gas Filled Pipe (HPFF and HPGF) cable types or Self-Contained Fluid Filled (SCFF) electrical cable types are prone to developing fluid leaks.
Buried power cable wires can also […]
The Need for Circuit Breakers
Whether it is a residential structure or a commercial building, everyone is exposed to electric hazards from domestic appliances, plant equipment and machinery. Shocks and burns from faulty plant equipment can result in lifelong damage and cause serious injuries. Circuit breaker protection is used along with grounding for protecting electronic […]
Power cables are the basic components of any electrical system. There are different types of cables that are available in the market. The choice of which specific cable types should be used for specific purposes is based on several factors, the most important of them being the technical specifications of the functions.
As much as […]
The use of underground cables for transmission of power dates back centuries. However, the usage of these cables has remained relatively low in different regions of the world. The basic idea behind the use of underground cables is that electrical power can be transmitted in two main ways: by use of overhead electrical cables […]
When cool surfaces are exposed to warm, moist air, condensation occurs. Condensation is characterized by the cooling of surfaces after coming in contact with warmer air in their surrounding environment.
Electrical enclosures are prone to condensation, as they are exposed to temperature fluctuations. The remedy for this danger is the installation of thermal insulators, especially […]
Electric housing or electric enclosures are structures built to protect circuit boards from the elements so they can function properly. Wind, water, dust, debris, cold and humidity are all elements that could damage or interfere with proper working of the circuit board. Your choice of circuit boards is very important since it impacts the […]
Electrical Maintenance
It is essentially important to carry out electrical maintenance on a regular basis; maintaining all the electrical material fittings, appliances, and devices in and around your home. Maintenance enhances the smooth running of all the electricity-powered items in your home while creating a safe environment that will be free from all sorts of […]
