Electrical Code Compliance
(NEC) standards ensure that electrical systems function properly and minimize the risk of fires or other hazards.
The Electrical Transformer
An electrical transformer is an electro-magnetic device that works by converting electrical energy from one value to another.
Electrical Short Circuit
A short circuit is any condition where the establish wiring circuit is interrupted by a flaw in the wiring or wiring connections.
Electrical Wire Gauge
Wire gauge is a measurement of wire diameter. This determines the amount of electric current a wire can safely carry.
Residential and Commercial Electrical Circuits
Electricity is a flow of electrons. A complete circuit is needed for electricity to flow. From the main electric service panel, electricity is divided into circuits throughout a building. The maximum amount of load that can be placed on any single circuit is controlled by a circuit breaker. Building circuits are parallel circuits. A parallel…
Low Voltage Wiring
Low voltage wiring is the wiring for audio, video, telephones, alarm systems, HVAC, and generally any wiring for things using less than 24 volts. Low voltage is often used only with small electrical systems as it is not suitable for large-scale electrical projects. There are very real safety risks associated with low-voltage systems. Low-voltage can…
