If current is “missing”, it means there is a leak somewhere in the wiring installation. If this current leaks through a person’s body, it could lead to a potentially fatal electrocution. Residual current devices …

The residual-current circuit breaker with overload protection consists of a single compact housing in which the functions of a circuit breaker are combined with a residual-current device. The generic …

What is the difference between a residual current device (RCD) and a residual circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO)? Where should I place a CO detector? A carbon monoxide detector …

Voltage and current strength are two different things! voltage (expressed in volts) is required to make your device or appliance work current strength, or amperage (expressed in amperes), depends on …

Mode 3 is the recommended solution for most electric vehicles. In mode 3, the electric vehicle is supplied with alternating current (AC) by a charging station directly connected to the electricity meter …

The hefty discount offered on the actual device is often only available if you sign up to a multi-year contract with the dealer. If you decide to switch to a different supplier before the contract expires, you …

Electricity storage in the form of potential energy Pumped-storage hydroelectricity Pumped-storage hydroelectricity involves pumping water from a low-level lake to an accumulation pond higher up. …

Whether from natural or human sources, electromagnetic fields and radiation are omnipresent in our environment.

An electric overload occurs when too much current passes through electric wires. The wires heat and can melt, with the risk of starting a fire. The solution? Avoid plugging several power-hungry items of …

This includes the choice of conductive materials (copper, stainless steel, aluminium and steel are often used), the flow configuration (counter-current, co-current or cross-flow), and maximising the …
