Using voltage data down to the consumer level is essential for grid optimisation and operational flexibility in the new era of intermittent generation and fast-changing user demand. Power grids were ...
ACCORDING TO THE American Wind Energy Association, by the end of 2001, an additional 2000 MW of wind power will be added in the U.S. This new capacity includes four new wind farms of 200 MW or more ...
The distribution system, a key subset of the overall electric grid, provides power to residential, commercial and industrial customers. Voltage and reactive power management and control have been done ...
Editor’s note: I am so happy that there are still companies around that create precision, discrete transistors in our industry; Linear Integrated Systems is one of the best I have encountered. There ...
Electric motors that are either poorly maintained or which lack the proper electrical protection are the second greatest cause of electrical fires. So says the Factory Mutual Research Corp., a ...
AVC – The featured circuit controls a volume line automatically. It delivers an output voltage of approximately 4 volts peak to peak. This voltage remains relatively constant by input voltages ranging ...
Normally, if you want to control the gain of an amplifier, you’ll use a variable resistor. You know, like a volume control. But what if you want to control the amplifier’s gain with a voltage?
