Differences Between Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCB) – Class A, B, C, D, K and Z Type

Differences Between Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCB) Class A, B, C, D, K and Z Type Miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) are switches that operate automatically in order to provide protection against overload or short circuit conditions. MCBs are classified into different types based on overcurrent trip conditions. The difference between each type, or class, of MCB,

Moore’s Law

Moore’s Law For decades, Moore’s Law has been a topic of frequent discussion in the world of IT and semiconductors. Moore’s Law is an observation-based prediction that the number of transistors inside integrated circuits (ICs) will double approximately every two years. In recent years, this dialogue has become more of a debate, with some observers

Electrical Nodes and Junctions

Electrical Nodes and Junctions A node consists of the point where the terminals of two or more circuit elements meet and any wires/conductors between the terminals. Everyone agrees on the definition of a node. A junction is most commonly defined as any point in a circuit where current splits. Junctions are also sometimes defined as
