Surge protection for an electrical panel controls how transient voltages enter and spread through branch circuits inside the ...

Protecting susceptible electronic equipment from AC power line disturbances is a major concern for most people, whether their business environment is commercial or industrial. No matter what the ...

Repeatable transients are frequently caused by the operation of motors, generators, or the switching of reactive circuit components. Random transients, on the other hand, are often caused by Lightning ...

We've all heard the term “transient” used in discussions of possible power quality problems, yet we still seem to have a lack of understanding of what a transient truly is. There is no precise ...

Varistors, also called metal-oxide varistors (MOVs), are used to protect sensitive circuits from a variety of overvoltage conditions. Essentially, these voltage-dependent, nonlinear devices have ...

IT has been said by an eminent American engineer that whereas problems in transient phenomena can only be solved by the application of the calculus, the terrors which this branch of mathematics holds ...

Editor’s note: I am pleased to bring you another educational and informative commentary, this time by Eric Hackett, INT TRX Applications Engineer, Texas Instruments. File it away in your book of ...

CATALOG DESCRIPTION: Fundamental concepts in electrical circuits; circuit analysis and network theorems; linearity and superposition; series/parallel combinations of R, L, and C circuits; sinusoidal ...

An electrical fuse box and a circuit breaker panel interrupt faults differently, shaping safety exposure, maintenance risk, upgrade limits, and long-term reliability. The wrong choice can quietly turn ...
