It's no secret that electrical technicians are always looking for ways to maximize efficiency and profits by shortening labor hours on a job site. When it comes to fiber-optic testing, a new tool from ...

A time domain reflectometer (TDR) measures reflections along a cable. It is similar in principle to radar. To measure those reflections, the TDR transmits an incident signal into the cable and watches ...

Out-of-step protection is a critical component of modern power system protection schemes—its importance has grown ...

The street scene shows damage caused by an explosion in a manhole as a result of gases generated by a low-voltage arcing fault. North America, according to statistics published by the IEEE Insulated ...

To manage the challenges of today’s complex electrical power systems and tightening budgets, facility managers need to understand the critical connection between electrical commissioning and ...

Underground electrical cable systems are used by power companies around the world. Two recently updated specifications and guides provide system designers and engineers with important information to ...

This network cable tester is designed for testing network cable with CAT 5 connectors, RJ-45. It can be modified to test any 8 conductor cable by replacing the RJ-45 jacks with the mating connectors ...

Final electrical test remains one of the best ways to assess a circuit’s ultimate viability. But we know that, unfortunately, even 100% end-of-line electrical testing of semiconductor wafers will not ...
