Electricians know these electrical terms and you should too, especially if you plan to save money by doing basic electrical ...

Alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) are two distinct ways electric charge is transferred through a circuit. AC involves the flow of charge that periodically reverses direction, creating a ...

Credit: Kia Electric vehicles are more prevalent now than ever before, as sales continue to increase. But how do ...

The LED, or light-emitting diode, is very unlikely to fail, and if it does, it goes out slowly over years. Instead, it's the ...

Electrical power transmission networks are protected and controlled by medium and high-voltage circuit breakers. Breakers are meant to make and break the flow of electrical currents in transmission ...

The electric coil wound around the magnetic core, together with the capacitor, forms an LC resonance circuit. The switch on the LC resonance circuit is turned off after the motor is powered once, and ...

Space heaters are good for warming a room but they can be a serious fire hazard if you plant them in the wrong spot. Here's ...

The focus of a project by the team of Michael Bartlett, principal investigator and associate professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, is on the circuits that manage all the electronic ...

Abstract: In this paper the fundamental formulas of variable frequency electric circuit theory are first developed. These are then applied to a study of the transmission, reception and detection of ...
