Types of Energy Meters and Their Working Principles
An energy meter is a device used for measuring the amount of electrical energy consumed by a load over a certain period of time. This device is essential for recording the electricity usages so that consumers can monitor and change the energy consumption patterns to reduce energy consumption and hence the bill amount. An energy meter is an important link between power supplier and consumers that allows them for efficient measurement of electricity supplied or consumed. What is an Energy Meter? An electrical device or instrument which is used for measuring the amount of electricity consumed by the consumers over ...
Read MoreWhat are Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR)?
In electrical power system, there is a device called Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) used to adjust the voltage levels within a desired limit. In other words, an automatic voltage regulator is an electronic circuit that is primarily used for regulating the output voltage of an electric generator, so that we can obtain a constant voltage even when the load is fluctuating. This tutorial will explain the construction, working, needs, advantages, and applications of automatic voltage regulators (AVRs). So, let’s start with the basic introduction of automatic voltage regulator. What is an Automatic Voltage Regulator? An AVR or Automatic Voltage Regulator ...
Read MoreWhat is Floating Neutral?
In an electrical system, there are three types of conductors used, they are phase, neutral, and ground. In general, the neutral wire is grounded for safety and stability reasons. But sometimes, a condition occurs where the neutral wire of the systems is disconnected from the ground terminal, this condition is known as floating neutral. In some special situations, the neutral wire is intentionally left isolated from the ground terminal, this is also known as floating neutral. In this article, we will learn about floating neutral in electrical systems, its effects, causes, and methods of testing and fixing the floating ...
Read MoreDifference between Permittivity and Permeability
There are two physical quantities namely Permittivity and Permeability that play a vital role in the field electrical engineering. Permittivity is related to electrostatics and it is the measure of electrical polarization of a dielectric material when it is placed in an external electric field. Permeability is related to electromagnetism and it is the measure of magnetic polarization of a magnetic material when it is placed in an external magnetic field. In this article, we will highlight all the key differences between permittivity and permeability by considering different parameters like basic definition, unit, formula, importance, etc. Let's start ...
Read MoreVariables in MATLAB – Definition, Characteristics, and Types
MATLAB is a high-level programming language that supports different kinds of fundamental elements. In MATLAB, there is a fundamental element called variable which is used to store data. A variable has a unique name referred to as identifier. A value is stored in the variable that can be utilized through the variable name. In this article, we will study about basics of variables and their characteristics. Also, we will explore different types of variables and their declaration with the help of examples. What is a Variable in MATLAB? In MATLAB, a variable is one of the programming elements that is used to ...
