Panel Building
For July 2017, let's focus on the articles published in the category "Panel Building".
Have you read some of the articles published there lately? If you haven't, here're the 3 latest articles from the category:
1. Common problems in medium voltage switchgear
2. Raceways in internal installations
3. 12 common errors in an Electrical Installation (and solutions)
If you would like to publish an article in the blog just tell us by mail. You can even post directly on the forum!
You can write about whatever you want (debate, tutorial, product review, your observations, your opinion as an engineer or student, etc.).
Thanks in advance for your active contribution to our community,

These past weeks, some topics in the forum remained without answer. Maybe you could help the members to solve their problem.
|
Don't forget: it takes 5 minutes to do it and the person asking may become the one to answer YOUR questions in the future!
1. Immerge water heater in a metal cup; is it dangerous?
2. Are EMI and EMC filters the same thing?
3. Is there any difference between avalanche diode and recovery diode?
Thanks in advance for your active contribution to our community.

| TOP 3 Best Medium Voltage technical guides |
 |
|
You're working on MV electrical installations? These require equipments as well as a specific technical setting up to be efficient.
Check this article comparing 3 technical guides that deal with medium voltage electrical installation according to the standards to apply in 2017. Each of them has been written by a team of experts working for 3 major manufacturers.
These documents are perfect if you need a clear and efficient technical support and their comparison is based on:
The quality and the relevance of the information on designing rules for MV
The quality and the relevance of the information on designing rules for switchgear and power transformers
The quality and the relevance of the information on the evolution of MV standards
The desire to edit an informative guide first instead of a products catalog only

| Capacitor bank switching (back to basics) |
 |
The continuous growth of the electricity demand in the heavy industry, regarding the installation of large motors in the system, involves the increase of the reactive power consumption due to the typical power factor in steady-state and during the motor starting.
As a result, the transmission and distribution system undergoes low voltage profiles, as well as losses in transmission lines and power transformers. Installing capacitor banks, as a local reactive source is a solution to avoid it.
