Fundamentally, electrical power is developed, delivered, and consumed as voltage and current. In a simple direct current (DC) device such as a flashlight, the power (the brightness of the bulb) is the ...
Modern high-frequency amplifiers are a cranky group that lose performance when driving capacitive and reactive loads. Fortunately, you can use some simple tricks to pacify poorly loaded amplifiers.
It hasn’t been that long since humans figured out how to create power grids that integrated multiple generators and consumers. Ever since AC won the battle of the currents, grid operators have had to ...
In a time where capacity revenues are pricing lower and many generation owners find that their facilities are not being dispatched for energy on a consistent basis, reliable revenue streams are ...
Understanding power factor (PF) is important because it gives us a clear understanding of the efficiency of an electrical system. Put simply, it’s the ratio of true power and apparent power, which ...
