Hi,
In some marine isolated electrical systems I saw that only one phase insulation resistace is monitored. Why? If something happens on other phases I will have no information about that or...?
Regards!
I have a few questions about earthing in electrical systems.
1) How can Earth be used as a "conductor"? I googled its resistance and it turns out that Earth resistance is not that large and it can be reliably used as a conductor. For example, I read it can be used as a return conductor in single...
CONCEPTUAL QUESTIONS:
-Does the Homogenous Solution represent the Transient Response?
Let me specify. For a N-DOF spring, mass, and damper mechanical system:
-Does the Homogenous Solution represent the Transient Response for given mechanical system?
MY ANSWER:
Yes.
ASSUMPTIONS:
-only...
Pardon me if I stated the title incorrectly/ informally. I just want to say about the title is about the 220 V, 60 Hz source (present in our outlets also) in our house by which comes from nearby electrical post.
I have four questions in this post/thread so kindly tell me if I need to edit this...

Hello! I've been really unsure of whether my solutions to the first problem and part (b) of the second are right. My book gives few examples and so I've been trying to look on other websites for resources. Sorry if this is a lot, but any and all help would be appreciated...

Kirchoff's Voltage/Current Law
The Attempt at a Solution
I first started by summing up the currents at node 1, which is the intersection of 3 wires at the top, and node 2, which is between the capacitor and inductor.
So, at node 1: $$ \sum i = -i(t) +...
Hi everyone! Design of electrical systems for buildings is the field I want to engage in the future. I have already basic concepts learned about this. But I want to improve myself in this field. I am looking for a reliable and organized reference. Please help me choose the book/reference I...
I was just wondering about chassis ground in the context of a cars electrical system.
If the return path back to the battery is through the metal chassis of the car, then what stops you from receiving a shock when you touch the car chassis ?
Thanks.
Hi, I am currently working on a year placement between my 2nd and 3rd years at university.
I'm working at RWENpower in swindon, UK and goto Coventry University in the Midlands.
I have a couple of questions about the industry and certain technical issues.
1. I am currently looking at...

Wasn't quite sure where to post this considering it talks about 2 subjects, but i guess this is a good place to start. My question is: How [if at all] can high energy EM waves affect electronic systems? More specifically gamma rays.
I am by no means an electro-physicist, cosmic radiation is...
Ok so yesterday, I had to jump start my chevy blazer because I left the dome light on and the battery went dead. once it started, I let it run at high rpms for 8-10 minutes to semi charge the battery before I left. I know it was charging, because my alternator gauge was reading 16, and a fully...
