List of Functional Tests Required for Electrical Systems

Electrical functional testing is very important and critical part of any electrical project. Most of the times it is necessary to hire a third party in order to conduct the function testing of electrical systems. Big electromechanical companies are having their own testing and commissioning teams that can perform the electrical tests depending upon the… Read More »

Open Circuit & Short Circuit Tests of Electrical Transformers

There are many different tests for the transformers depending upon the usage, type and size but most common tests are: Short Circuit Test Open Circuit Test Let us first understand that what does short circuit and open circuit means in electrical transformers: What is a Short Circuit? A short circuit is an electrical circuit that… Read More »

Electrical Testing Requirements for an Electrical Project

Being an electrical engineer on a construction project is a very tedious and responsible job. Electrical site engineer is wholly responsible for the ordering of materials as per the pre approved material submittals and an electrical project specifications. Here in this article we have included the complete list of testing requirements for an electrical system… Read More »

Power Distribution Substation Roles, Types & Components

As an electrical engineer or professional you already know that an electrical or distribution substation is very important components of any power distribution system. Normally electrical grid can be considered as simple circuit which includes power source or generation, power transmission and electricity distribution lines for connecting to the electricity consumers. The role of electrical… Read More »

Spontaneous Magnetism / Magnetization

Spontaneous magnetization is the appearance of an ordered spin state (magnetization) at zero applied magnetic field in a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material below acritical point called the Curie temperature or TC. Heated to temperatures above TC, ferromagnetic materials become paramagnetic and their magnetic behavior is dominated by spin waves or magnons, which are bosoncollective excitations… Read More »

Power & Voltage Distribution Systems – Components Introduction

Distributions systems represent an important parts in the electrical grids and for this reasons the electrical generation & distribution companies delicate approximately 40% of the capital investment for distribution systems while the remaining is given to generation and transmission (40% generation & 20% transmission). The power distribution system is particularly important for an electrical utility… Read More »
