We've all heard the term “transient” used in discussions of possible power quality problems, yet we still seem to have a lack of understanding of what a transient truly is. There is no precise ...

Electrical issues often hide behind subtle symptoms, requiring a detective-like approach to troubleshooting the equipment. High-speed power quality analyzers are essential for capturing transient ...

THIS book was primarily written for the electrical engineering students of the University of Washington. It discusses in detail many of the transient phenomena which ensue whenever any of the electric ...

Large ground-mounted PV plants face significant lightning-induced transient voltages that can increase step-voltage hazards, ...

THE recent improvements in the design of cathode ray oscillographs have naturally led to an exploration of their use for the external photographic recording of recurrent electrical events and also ...

Electrical and cyber vulnerability of EVs during charging. The two primary technologies for protecting EVs: isolators and current limiters. The four most relevant kinds of current limiters. Vehicle ...

This September marks one year since revisions were released regarding the MIL-STD-1275 standard, and there were notable implications for system design engineers when considering overvoltage-protection ...

Digital input serializers (DIS), the heart of digital input modules, must operate in harsh industrial environments. Voltage and current transients caused by electrostatic discharge, switching of ...

Many vendors of industrial bus transceivers showcase their device robustness with a high immunity to electrostatic discharge (ESD). In strong contrast to that, industrial system designers rank ESD as ...
