Electrical Grounding and the Weather

How resistance testing is affected by the elements BY JEFF JOWETT, Megger Ground resistance testing is affected by the weather as much as any common electrical test—and sometimes even more so. Both the instrument and the test item are affected. With ground resistance testing, the test item is not...

INSULATION RESISTANCE TEST

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...

Cloud-Based BAS: Benefits, Drawbacks, and Considerations for Remote Management

Cloud-Based BAS: Benefits, Drawbacks, and Considerations for Remote Management The traditional model of building automation systems (BAS) has involved on-premises servers, software installations, and localized data storage. Cloud-based solutions are disrupting this model, offering the potential...

BAS for Lighting Control and Energy Management

Building Automation Systems (BAS) are intelligent networks that manage and optimize various aspects of a building's operation. One of their most impactful applications is in lighting control, contributing significantly to energy efficiency and cost savings. This article explores how BAS leverage...

Advances and Limitations in Arc Flash Safety

Remote operation technologies, such as remote racking, diagnostic, and equipment control solutions, have become pivotal in enhancing arc flash safety in electrical systems. These innovations allow personnel to operate and monitor electrical equipment from a safe distance, reducing the risk of arc...

Arc Flash Mitigation in LV Systems

A common misconception within the electrical industry is that low-voltage systems (typically operating at 600V or lower) pose a lesser arc flash risk than their higher voltage counterparts. While the potential incident energy may be lower in some cases, underestimating the hazards present in...
