Selecting the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for arc flash hazards is a critical decision that affects the safety and well-being of electrical workers. The process involves matching PPE categories to the calculated incident energy levels of electrical tasks, considering the...
Power Quality Training
Guidance for calculation of efficiency in data centers BY VICTOR AVELAR, Schneider Electric The benefits of determining data center infrastructure efficiency as part of an effective energy management plan are widely recognized. The standard metrics of power usage effectiveness (PUE) and its...
Insulation Resistance (IR) test, often called Megger test, is more than 100 years old and assumed to be a very straightforward test. During my inspection and testing work in the past 15 years in Canada, US, and internationally, I have seen different practices of performing and interpretation of IR...
Building Automation Training
Traditional building automation systems have often relied on a relatively sparse network of wired sensors to monitor temperature, humidity, and perhaps a few other basic parameters. Wireless sensor networks are disrupting this model, enabling the deployment of far denser arrays of sensors,...
How to be an energy efficient facility BY DAVE BOVANKOVICH, E-Mon Energy efficiency starts with knowing how your facility is using its power. Electrical Source Magazine has five initial considerations for industrial facilities to be mindful of in deploying an enterprise energy management systems...
