Synopsis A sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) circuit breaker uses contacts surrounded by sulfur hexafluoride gas to quench the arc. They are most often used for transmission-level voltages and may be incorporated into compact gas-insulated switchgear. .....
SynopsisProgrammable power supplies are sometimes called "system" power supplies, as they are often used as part of a computer-operated system for testing or production. A DC power supply is one that supplies a constant DC voltage to its load. Depending on its d.....
SynopsisSubmarines need large amounts of electricity to operate safely under water. They charge their batteries using diesel or nuclear-driven generators. Diesel subs must surface to recycle their batteries because carbon monoxide fumes are deadly. Nuclear ones can re.....
SynopsisLead-Acid battery uses a chemical reaction to do work on charge and produce a voltage between their output terminals. Despite having a very low energy-to-weight ratio and a low energy-to-volume ratio, its ability to supply high surge currents means that the ce.....
Synopsis Converters and inverters are electrical devices that convert current. Converters convert the voltage of an electric device, usually alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). On the other hand, inverters convert direct current (DC) to al.....
SynopsisA Lightning Arrester is a device, used on power systems, which contains billions of electronic switches that divert lightning around sensitive equipment and protects them from damage of lightening and switching surges. There are four different classes of arres.....
SynopsisGIS is a kind of metal enclosed switchgear. That means, all the equipment of the electrical switchgear are enclosed by gas tight metal enclosure and SF6 gas is used as insulation between live parts of the equipment and earthed metal enclosure. For establishing.....
Synopsis The lead-acid battery is a rechargeable battery technology available in the market, which is generally used in numerous applications such as motive, automotive, and stationary applications. These batteries are utilized in automo.....
SynopsisA DC-to-DC converter is a class of power supply which converts a source of direct current (DC) from one voltage level to another. They can essentially step-up, step-down or invert a DC voltage. The global DC-DC Power Supplies market was valued at US$ 851.....
Synopsis Charcoal briquettes are made of leftover bits of wood and sawdust mixed with additives and then compressed to give them their defining pillow shape. The global Charcoal Briquette market was valued at US$ 560 million in 2023 and is anti.....
