If your organization runs with the support of a sub-station, you will obviously require periodic maintenance. Timely maintenance ensures that your sub-station operates efficiently, securely, and a in a manner that makes it reliable. Think of it as just one of those things that just needs to be done. You see, after a point in

Not long ago, we discussed the variety of circuit breakers that are commonly used for industrial purposes. The SF6 electrical circuit breaker was one of the many circuit breakers we discussed. Today, we are going to look at the need for testing and maintaining the SF6 Circuit Breaker. But,  for those of you who might

While the monsoon comes as a sigh of relief after the sweltering heat of the summers, it brings with it serious electrical hazards as well. What with the furious thunderstorms, incessant rain, and high-velocity winds, there is a pronounced escalation in the number of electricity-related accidents during the monsoons. Given the fact that water is

Abstract A new universal equation using planet magnetic pole strength is presented and given reasoning for its assemblage. Coulomb’s Constant, normally used in calculating electrostatic force is utilized in a new magnetic dipole equation for the first time, along with specific orbital energy. Results were generated for five planets that give insight into specific orbital

Managing electrical operations within an industrial environment can be complex and tiresome, to say the least. Ensuring that every little piece of equipment stays operational is a task that’s not meant for “mere mortals”. That’s why we have preventive maintenance programs in place. But, maintenance programs aside, there is also the issue of coordinating and

Ever come across words like ‘Charge’ or ‘Current’? Well, if you have, you’d agree that these terms were confusing. But, when dealing with electrical systems, it is always necessary to know what you’re talking about. In this blog, we’re going to “educate” you on electrical quantities like voltage and charge. Knowing what these terms mean

Can all our energy come from renewable sources? This question has been a great topic of debate, but we may finally have the answer, thanks to a recent review paper written by Master of Science Benjamin Heard and his colleagues. The review paper, titled (“Response to ‘Burden of proof: A comprehensive review of the feasibility

What is an Arc Flash?

Monday, 04 June 2018 by

An arc flash, also known as an electric arc, is the rapid release of energy that occurs as the result of an electrical arcing fault. Arc flashes can be very dangerous to people who are exposed to it. The term “flash” refers to the actual flash of light that is emitted during the process and

In the past, we’ve discussed the various kinds of damages that can affect your electrical wiring. Now, most of it is either caused by bad weather/climate or by human error. However, there is one particular cause that we don’t tend to discuss in the context of industrial electrical systems – rodents. Rodents don’t just cause

In a time of rising energy prices and an impending exhaustion of our fossil fuel resources, renewable energy sources have become more necessary than ever before. Manufacturing industries are one of the largest consumers of fossil fuel in the country. Renewable sources of energy like bio-energy and solar energy are often overlooked for use in
