Fluorescent Light Electronic Ballast Types Function Benefits & Specifications

Fluorescent light electronic ballast provides initial high voltage for discharging the gas inside the fluorescent lamps/bulbs. Ballast converts power frequency to very high frequency that initializes gas discharge process by controlling voltage and current through the lamps. There are different types of light ballasts which include electromagnetic, hybrid and electronics. On this  page we are talking… Read More »

Power Factor Improvement & Correction | Power Triangle & Capacitor Banks

The electrical energy is almost exclusively generated, transmitted and distributed in the form of alternating current. Therefore, the question of power factor immediately comes into picture. Most of the loads (e.g. induction motors, arc lamps) are inductive in nature and hence have low lagging power factor. Low power factor is highly undesirable as it causes… Read More »

Fiber Optic Advantage Over Copper Cables

In recent years it has become apparent that fiber-optics are steadily replacing copper wire as an appropriate means of communication signal transmission. They span the long distances between local phone systems as well as providing the backbone for many network systems. Other system users include cable television services, university campuses, office buildings, industrial plants, and… Read More »
