One of the hidden complications of upgrading grain drying and handling systems is providing enough electricity to power the new larger electric motors. Electric motors that are larger than 15 hp ...

Renting your customer the right generator for his or her job is not as simple as pointing to the nearest model. You need to understand a little bit about electricity to adequately understand the ...

Many power ICs use frequency jitter, which spreads a control signal's spectrum, to control EMI (electromagnetic interference). If you need to add frequency jitter to power ICs that control three-phase ...

A motor control IC is a convenient way to implement custom motor drive algorithms such as the single-phase induction motor (SPIM) control. A generalized control algorithm, implemented and tested in an ...

[Robert Murray-Smith] doesn’t like the price of inverters to convert DC to AC. That led him to build a dynamotor, or what is sometimes called a motor-generator set. These devices are just DC motors ...

One of the more popular three-phase electrical services supplied to medium-size commercial buildings is the Wye or Star configuration transformer. The name comes from the transformer’s secondary ...
