The utilization categories AC-1 and AC-3 defines making, breaking and continuous operation current rating for contactors. Based on these rating, contactor for switching of resistive loads and switching of squirrel…
It is necessary to select the correct rating of switchgear for any application. Therefore, during selection, it is necessary to know the characteristics of the load. The International electrotechnical commission…
Air conditioners are one of the major power-consuming loads at home. This calculator can help you calculate electricity usage of your air conditioner and the usage cost. How to use…
Thevenin's and Norton's theorems are circuit simplification methods, applied to simplify complex linear circuits and making circuit analysis easy and fast. These theorems are proposed by Léon Charles Thévenin and…
A few small behavioral changes and other adjustments can help us save electricity as well as electricity bills. By saving electricity we are not only saving money but also saving…
In an electric circuit, power flows from the source to the load. The source itself has some amount of impedance which affects the current flow. Therefore, transfer of power depends…
It's hot inside let's turn on the AC!! The air conditioner is one of the high-power-consuming appliances at home. During sunny days you might have noticed a drastic increase in…
Superposition theorem can be used to find the current or voltage in any circuit containing more than one independent sources. By using this method, we calculate the contribution of each…
As we know, in a parallel circuit current divides into all branches. The current flow through each branch is inversely proportional to the resistance offered by each one them. The…
Norton’s theorem is used to simplify complex linear circuits and making circuit analysis easy and fast. This theorem was proposed by E. L. Norton, an American engineer at Bell Laboratories.…
