The global demand for green energy sources is driving strong market growth for solar power systems. Although a great deal of development work is still focused on making PV (photovoltaic) energy ...

The 2026 National Electrical Code (NEC) introduces a significant shift in electrical design by prioritizing real-time power flow over traditional, often oversized, theoretical worst-case calculations.

As electrical professionals, it’s important to have a basic understanding of several design criteria that are important to the design, operation, and maintenance of electrical distribution systems.

Electrical system complexity is reaching a tipping point across industries, from modern passenger vehicles to sophisticated industrial machines that can now contain nearly 5,000 wiring harnesses. The ...

Every year I spend the holidays with my mother in Wisconsin. Each time I’m there, I look outside her living room window and see the lightning protection rod on the roof of the house across the street.

Electrical substations utilize direct lightning stroke shielding to help ensure proper operation, and to prevent costly damages and extended outages. While modern substation designs and equipment make ...

Enclosures in electrical system design are often mission-critical components —even if it might not seem so. Considering these systems house electrical wiring, fiber optic devices, microcontrollers, ...

The compact, robust system includes live readouts for voltage and amperage, built-in fault detection, side-specific fault display, and automatic shutoff protection. The primary unit installs at the ...
