Some years ago, one of the fundamental electronic instruments was the laboratory curve tracer. A CRT display would sweep out terminal behavior (current versus voltage) from which you could derive ...

Abstract: Power distribution networks are rapidly evolving into large-scale, highly complex, and topologically variable active distribution networks (ADNs). In such ADNs, voltage issues are serious ...

Abstract: The voltage profile, a critical performance component in any power system, must be contained within a specified tolerance range with regard to the nominal voltage value. Managing reactive ...

I hope that you are never in a situation in which you are in danger from a downed, but live, power line. However, if that ever happens, the recommended safety procedure is to move away with tiny, ...

The simplicity, reliability, and weight reduction potential promised by high voltage direct current (HVDC) electrical power systems has enticed aircraft developers to propose the use of such systems ...

If the temperature of a metal conductor increases, the ions of the metal vibrate more vigorously. Hence, for a metal, resistance increases with increasing temperature. Often the increase in ...
