Topmost powerful tips on how electricity is generated

Topmost powerful tips on how electricity is generated 

 We all know that electricity is one of the most powerful sources which can simply be explained as the flow of electrical power or charge. Nowadays electricity that we are using is mostly generated from a power plant of a power generating station.

 Note that, there are many ways through which electricity is generated but the most popularly known and used way through which electricity is generated is hydroelectricity which simply means related to water. Electricity is mostly generated from a power plant of a power generating station simply by the use of an electromechanical generator that has been driven by a heat engine that has fluid with combustion which has also involved kinematic energy of flowing water together with the wind.

 Together a special turbine being fixed on the shaft of the electromechanical generator, the pressure of the water, steam or the air would then spin the turbine that is connected to the shaft of the generator and then electricity is finally generated in the electromagnetic coil of the generator and hence be transmitted to homes. Note that there are many types of power generating stations through electricity is generated with the use of different equipment’s.

  Top 3 powerful categories of circuit breakers every electrical engineer/engineer must know before doing any electrical installation Before we start with our topic of the day, let us take a look at what circuit breakers or breakers are. What is a circuit breaker? circuit breakers are simply electrical protective device that trips off automatically whenever there is an available faulty electric current or leakages flow through an electrical circuit or a particular circuit to keep other circuits intact. In all, there are mainly three (3) powerful categories of circuit breakers and they are moving with their own functions, areas of work, working principles, rating, and many more. Here are our top 3 categories of circuit breakers listed below; Low voltage circuit breakers  Medium-voltage circuit breakers High voltage circuit breakers Low voltage circuit breakers These are the types of circuit breakers that are commonly or popularly known circuit breakers that are designed to be u...

What is meant by an open circuit in the field of electricity?

  What is meant by an open circuit in the field of electricity?  In the field of electricity, an open circuit can be explained as a situation within an electrical or electronic circuit where there is no free flow of electrons or current in an electrical or electronic circuit. Note that in an electrical or electronic circuit, an electric current can only flow freely when the electrical or electronic circuit is a closed circuit.  Whenever there is a break or a cut-off or a disconnection occurs in an electrical or electronic circuit, then that circuit would become an open circuit since an electric current can no longer find its complete path to flow freely through that particular circuit.  But note that without current flowing through an electrical or an electronic circuit, there would, by all means, be a voltage drop or a potential difference available in any two-contact point in that circuit.

Types of low voltage circuit breakers every engineer must know

Image
Types of low voltage circuit breakers every engineer must know  Low voltage circuit breakers are simply a type or category of circuit breakers which we have learned earlier in our previous article. Generally, we all know those circuit breakers are specially designed or manufactured to be used in both homes or domestic wiring and transmission areas.  The low voltage circuit breakers are mostly the  types or categories of circuit breakers  used in domestic wiring. There are mainly 4 types of low voltage circuit breakers that are used to protect houses, homes, and workplaces. These types of circuit breakers are purposely designed for domestic use and low voltage areas of electricity. Low voltage circuit breakers are also designed to perform a specific function or to offer specific safety or protection to homes and offices. All the main types of low voltage circuit breakers are moving with their various rating, working principles, operations, and functions. Low voltage c...
