An electric iron or a steam iron or an iron box is a tool used to press the wrinkles out of your clothes so that when you dress up you look smart and neat. It is a basic tool that converts electric energy to heat. It consumes more electric power than most of the other … Read more
The energy usage of LED lamps is much lesser than that of CFL lamps or fluorescent lamps or incandescent bulbs. It can produce 80-100 lumens/ watts which is almost 5 times higher than the lumens/ watts capacity of incandescent bulbs (16 lumens per watt). By using LED lamps at home, you can reduce electricity usage. … Read more

Kilowatts and ampere are two different quantities of electricity. While the former quantifies the amount of power consumed by a load at any instant the latter quantifies the amount of current drawn by the load. You can use the following calculator to calculate Kilowatts from amperes. Enter the amperes, voltage, type of voltage and power … Read more
Voltage regulation of transformers can be a little tricky to understand. Every piece of equipment is designed to operate at a particular voltage or voltage range. Therefore, it is a basic requirement of the power system to maintain the system at a certain level. What is voltage regulation in transformer? Any transformer must be capable … Read more
Kilowatts and ampere are the units of two different parameters of electricity. While the former quantifies the amount of power consumed by a load at any instant the latter quantifies the amount of current drawn by the load. You can use the following calculator to convert kilowatt to ampere (kw to amps). Enter the kW, … Read more
The relationship between the current and voltage in a circuit was studied and formulated into laws by Gustov Kirchhoff, a German Physicist in 1845. Kirchhoff’s laws state the relationship between current and voltage in an electric circuit. They are applicable for both AC and DC circuits and forms the basis for circuit analysis. Kirchhoff’s laws … Read more
Every motor must be protected from all possible faults to ensure prolonged and safe operation as well as time loss caused due to breakdown. Almost all industries rely on the electric motor to control their processes and production. Hence it is necessary to make the motor fail-safe. The most vulnerable part of a motor is … Read more
kA rating of an MCB or an MCCB is the maximum current it can safely interrupt in case of a short circuit. If the current goes beyond this value, the circuit breaker could be damaged. kA rating is known as the short circuit withstand capacity or ultimate breaking capacity of a circuit breaker. For example, … Read more
MCB stands for miniature circuit breaker. It is a circuit protection device, capable of protecting a circuit or a piece of equipment from greater damages caused due to short circuits as well as overloads. It is a modular device and can be used as an alternative to fuses. It is capable of sensing overload and … Read more
