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...

The Art of Ground Testing

Correcting the misconceptions of ground testing BY JEFF JOWETT, Megger Ground resistance testing is sometimes described as an “art”, and indeed something can be said for that description. Familiarity with the basic issues and common problems, however, can take much of the “art” out of it...

Arc Flash Training

Understanding Arc Flash Hazard Analysis

Arc flash incidents pose a significant risk in electrical environments, where a sudden discharge of electrical energy through the air can cause severe injury, equipment damage, and even fatalities. Arc flash hazard analysis is a systematic approach to assessing these risks, defining safety...

The Impact of Incorrect PPE Usage

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is a critical line of defense in protecting workers from the dangers of arc flash incidents. These incidents, characterized by intense bursts of energy caused by an electrical fault, can result in severe injury or death. Therefore, using the correct PPE, properly...

Building Automation Training

Optimizing User Behavior for BAS-Driven Energy Management

Building Automation Systems (BAS) offer a powerful tool for optimizing energy consumption in buildings. However, achieving maximum energy savings often hinges on a factor beyond the control of BAS systems themselves: occupant behavior. This article explores the challenges associated with occupant...

How Artificial Intelligence is Reshaping HVAC Efficiency

Traditionally, HVAC control within building automation systems has relied on rule-based systems and human programmed schedules. These systems, while effective, leave significant room for further optimization. The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) offers...
