What is Earthing and Bonding? Earthing: Connects electrical systems to the ground, providing a safe path for fault currents. Prevents shocks by directing excess electricity into the earth. Bonding: Connects all exposed metallic parts together to keep them at the same potential, reducing shock risks. Why Earthing and Bonding are Crucial ⚡ Protection...

🔌 What is Electrical Capacity? Electrical capacity = maximum electricity a circuit, panel, or generator can handle safely. Measured in Amperes (Amps). Exceeding capacity → risk of tripped breakers, short circuits, or fire. 📊 Typical Electrical Panel Capacities by Home Age Before 1950 → ~30 Amps (knob-and-tube, fuses). 1950s–1960s → ~60 Amps. 1960–1980 → ~100 Amps. 1980...

General Rules All plugs and socket outlets must be 3-pin type. Provide an adequate number of sockets in each room. In sub-power circuits: Use only 3-pin, 16A sockets. Each sub-circuit can supply a maximum of 2 sockets with total load not exceeding 3000W. Appliances requiring more than 16A must be controlled by a double-pole switch. Height...

What is the NEC? The National Electrical Code (NEC) sets the standard for safe electrical wiring and equipment installation in the U.S. Published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Updated every 3 years to include new technologies and safety practices. Covers everything from wiring inside walls to panels, breakers, batteries, solar, and...

Electrocution is one of the most serious hazards at work. Following simple precautions can greatly reduce the risk. 🔧 1. Use the Right Equipment Choose double-insulated tools for extra protection. Install and maintain Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) to cut power instantly when faults occur. Test GFCIs regularly to make sure they work properly. ⚠️...

⚡ Safe Handling of Live Wires and Circuits 🔎 Hazards of Improper Handling Electrical Shock – direct contact with live wires. Fire Risk – overloaded/damaged wires can overheat. Trip Hazards – loose or messy cables cause accidents. Equipment Damage – poor installation harms devices. 📝 Pre-Installation Safety Site Inspection – check for water, panels, foot traffic. Plan...

🔒 Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) – Why It Matters ⚡ What is Lockout/Tagout? LOTO = Lock + Tag on equipment during repair, servicing, or maintenance. Prevents unexpected startup or release of hazardous energy. Required under OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.147. Protects electricians, machine operators, laborers, and other workers. 🛡️ Why It’s Important Creates an Electrically Safe Work Condition...

🛡️ Types of PPE Head Protection – Hard hats with electrical insulation. Eye & Face Protection – Safety glasses, goggles, face shields (for sparks/arc flash). Hearing Protection – Earplugs for noisy equipment. Hand & Arm Protection – Insulated gloves, rubber lineman gloves, protective sleeves. Foot & Leg Protection – Non-conductive safety shoes, dielectric overshoes. Body...

Keep equipment away from water – Maintain at least 5 feet distance and use GFCIs to prevent shocks and fire hazards. Unplug safely – Always pull from the plug, not the cord, to avoid damage and electric shock. Install & tidy cords – Ensure proper installation and keep cords neat and...

A simple circuit with a single resistor connected to a voltage source (battery). Charges move through the resistor from the positive terminal of the source to the negative. The animation often shows little dots or markers representing electric charge or current flow. From the resistor’s point of view The resistor resists the flow...

What a triangle wave is A triangle wave is a periodic waveform that linearly ramps up then linearly ramps down (or vice versa), forming a triangular shape. It has slope changes at the peaks (sharp corners), unlike sine waves which are smooth. What Fourier series does here Fourier series lets you express a...
