DC/DC converters for demanding applications, ranging from industrial, railway systems, and satellites to communications and information technology equipment (ITE), are required to meet stringent ...

Time and time again, Mechanical Dynamics & Analysis (MD&A) shows the global utility industry its strength, technical capability, and resource depth to serve as a premier alternative to the original ...

Not every design needs large bus bars; some only need smaller, localized ones or PC board-mounted bus bars. This part looks at these situations, as well as testing of high-current/voltage bus bars.

Loose or mismatched electrical components cause the highest rate of failures in vehicles. Often harnesses and components are inadvertently pinched, miswired or damaged during installation. Also, cable ...

Abstract: Medium voltage (MV) SiC devices facilitate direct (without 50-/60-Hz transformer) connection of the power electronics converter to the MV grid using simple topology. Compared to the ...

Electrical safety testers—often referred to as “hipot” testers—are an integral part of electrical and electronic equipment manufacturing. Hipot testers get their name from the high-potential (high ...

Electrical safety testing has been one of the most misunderstood, and misapplied functions performed by manufacturing companies. Manufacturers in the know are very aware that such testing, while ...

Electricity is like the genie in a bottle. When it is contained and properly harnessed, its power is endless. However, when it escapes in an uncontrolled manner, electricity has the potential to cause ...
