Consistent adherence to IEEE Standard 142 would save billions of dollars annually over today's common practices. What makes this standard so powerful?To...More
If your facility has a modern distributed control system with a reading "offset" problem, the grounding system could be the cause.and the remedy....More
Knowing what types of ground rods are available as well as understanding how they work and interact with different soil conditions help you prevent grounding problems....More
If on-site power is your sole source of power and you follow the NEC Art. 250, then grounding is straight forward. But, if it serves an alternate source, then grounding becomes much more complex....More
At first glance, the deceptively simple and passive elements of a grounding system don't seem to do very much. But beyond this simple exterior lies the power of a sleeping giant....More
Although the basic principles of grounding and bonding apply to telecom systems, you must understand the new terminology and unique grounding needs that sensitive systems require....More
Most power quality problems are due to incorrect connections of an electrical system. Using CTs and leakage current monitors, you can check an electrical system during acceptance testing of the installation and also during maintenance and renovation of the system....More
Dual service with double-ended switchgear from different manufacturers presented a grounding system that would not function correctly due to the connection’s configuration....More
LEDs have unique and compelling characteristics that make them ideal for industrial lighting applications. But there are a variety of misconceptions about LEDs, how well they work, how long they last, and more. Digital Lumens developed this whitepaper to dish up the facts around LEDs and address some common misunderstandings....More
An arc flash is associated with the explosive release of energy caused by an electrical arc, due to either a phase-to-ground or a phase-to-phase fault. This kind of fault can result from many factors – a dropped tool, accidental contact with electrical systems, buildup of conductive dust, corrosion or improper work conditions.....More
Abstract: In this webinar, Mike will not only explain the current NEC requirements for GFCIs and AFCIs, but he'll explain how they operate, what causes their premature failure, and when they won't provide the safety protection you might have thought they would.
Abstract: This webinar will teach attendees the difference between risk and hazard, and how the choice of system grounding has a direct impact on reliability and safety.
See side-by-side comparisons of different flame resistant fabrics exposed to flash fires, illustrating the extent, severity and location of burns....More
