Introduction to switchboards and how they are used to safely distribute electricity throughout commercial and industrial facilities.
Distributed energy resources (DERs) are small-scale energy generation units situated on the consumer’s side of the meter. Learn about various DER types, financial benefits, grid programs and codes and standards.
Learn the concepts that explain the flow of electricity: volts, amps, and watts. We then explain how these fundamental units of electricity are applied in designing an electrical power system.
A reduced voltage soft starter, or RVSS, is an electronic device used to start and control the speed of electric motors. RVSSs are designed to protect motors from sudden influxes in power by limiting inrush current associated with motor startup.
Impedance is a measure of how much a circuit resists the flow of alternating current (AC). High impedance means less current, leading to inefficiencies and power losses. Learn where impedance comes from and how it affects electrical systems.
