The transformation of the power landscape involves more than just generation. The distribution of electricity is being changed as well, with technology designed to make electrical systems safer, more ...

How does the NEC control your signaling and control wiring requirements? Today's industrial facilities use a host of control circuits for motor control, instrumentation signals, and plant shutdown ...

The control circuit in Figure 1a allows you to manually adjust the power delivered to a load. By changing the setting of potentiometer R 3, you change the phase angle at which the thyristor (Q 3) ...

The design of modern motor control systemsis quite complex and requires a deep understanding of controlsystem algorithms, microcontroller and digital signal processors,sensor signal measurement and ...

Short circuit current ratings should not be overlooked during panel design. Negative impacts can occur to production, equipment and, worst case, plant personnel. Per 2014 NEC Article 100, short ...
