Why do some transformers make a humming noise? You may hear a humming noise when the transformer is operating. This is due to the mechanical vibrations it produces. This is only audible under certain circumstances, for example when a transformer for a lighting system is mounted between a ceiling or wall. Hollow spaces can [...]
A distribution transformer is understood to be all those transformers whose power is 500 KVA or less and their voltages are 23,000 V or less. This class of distribution transformers are often used for the electrical supply of apartment blocks, warehouses, shopping centers and rural areas. To choose properly, you must know well the [...]
An electrical transformer is a static and reversible electrical machine that allows the electrical voltage (potential difference or voltage) to be increased or decreased in an alternating current electrical circuit while maintaining electrical power. The input power to an ideal transformer (without losses) is the same that will be obtained at the output. To [...]
Tax relief, savings in operating costs and reduced carbon footprint are just some of the reasons why implementing solar energy can be a great option. Aware of their social responsibility and the need to reduce their carbon footprint, companies are increasingly talking about sustainable development, concentrating on fine-tuning their methods and implementing technologies that allow [...]
Before entering the article, it is important that you know the functionalities that thermal switches and circuit breakers fulfill. Both serve to cut the electricity. They are an essential element of security within the electrical installations in our homes and businesses. Circuit breakers They are those automatic electricity switches. They are responsible for protecting [...]
The electrical panel of the house is the most important part of the electrical installation of any home. It is commonly known as " the spreads " or even, older the term " the leads." These two expressions make references to elements that they contain. Actually, the correct name would be General Command and [...]
Circuit breakers are commonly known as automatic ones. It is an essential element of any electrical installation. It is what protects the entire installation, hence its importance as a first-rate security element. Any rise in voltage or overload will be detected by the circuit breaker and will cut off the current, protecting the rest [...]
Undoubtedly, the application of electrical energy to humanity represented innumerable advances. However, when there are no effective prevention plans, this same resource can become a source of danger. Accidents due to electrical risk in organizations of different sectors have an alarming frequency level. According to the Department of Statistics and Health Information, the deceased due [...]
Due to the operation of machines, motors, equipment, etc., industrial processes have both low, medium, and high voltage electrical installations, which represents a latent risk of suffering electrical accidents, as a result of any damage, for more minimal whatever. For this reason, it is important to know what are the types of electrical accidents to [...]
Workers who carry out work in which they are exposed to the risks of electricity must know the dangers to which they are subjected and the preventive measures to avoid as many accidents as possible. For this, it is necessary to comply with the security measures established by the regulations and apply the appropriate recommendations [...]
