In this follow-up article, we will try to answer some common questions, take a closer look at how the manufacturers of steel conduit and tubing address corrosion, and offer additional specific potential solutions to ward off the effects of corrosion
Now that we have a series of equations relating to power, voltage, current, and resistance, I want to crank through some simple example calculations.
Absence of voltage testing is a vital step in the process of verifying and establishing a de-energized state of any electrical system.
Lightning’s perfect storm for destruction is on the solar field. Solar panels’ large—and often exposed and isolated—location make surge protection critical for it to last its lifespan.
What type of copper conductors and copper-clad aluminum connectors are Certified (Listed) for terminating copper-clad aluminum conductors?
What is the rating of a branch circuit, feeder, or consumer’s service as mandated by the Canadian Electrical Code?
Ask any code official who does this job long enough, or even a short time, and they will tell you that many times in their career, the building codes have been used as a “political poker chip,”
Today, the many diverse stakeholders involved in the practical rollout of 5G technologies can rest assured that a concerted effort is underway to bring consistency to this complex undertaking.
