Electricity plays an important role in the society we live. Almost all the home appliances and the industrial machines work on electricity. Despite its usefulness, electricity can be quite harmful for us when any fault occurs in electrical system. Common faults like short circuit or power overload may result in costly equipment damage. Prevention of such unwanted situations is a must and for these, MCBs and Isolators are integrated in the electrical circuits these days.
Over the years technology has paved way for innovation in various different sectors. Sustainability is a factor taken into account while developing products especially in developing countries like
Applying BLDC (brushless direct current) mechanism to ceiling fans, IIT Bombay Alumni designed what they call; Gorilla Fans, India’s most energy efficient fan, bringing about a thoughtful change in the environment.
Why Buy Gorilla Fans?
Cables and Wires are common terms during your home or office construction or renovation. Every type of building electrical infrastructure requires cables and wires at the grass-root level. So whether it is restaurant, hotel, hospital, office, mall or your home, you require professional wiring to enjoy benefits of modern electrical infrastructure. This is the reason, when buying cables and wires, quality, brand and appropriate current rating/size should be kept in mind. Otherwise you may have to upgrade these at a later stage or even risk short-circuit in case of current overload.
Solar energy metering or Net energy metering or net metering permits customers who generate their own solar electricity to monitor their energy consumption as well as production. When more electricity is produced than required, excess power is returned to grid through power meter by reversing meter from its normal direction. As a result of energy meter working in both the directions – one way to measure purchased power (when on-site need is more than on-site power production), the other way to measure returned power to grid – the consumer pays the ‘net amount’ of both the transactions.
Armoured cable is a kind of cable that is covered in metal sheath. The cable is a bundle of wires, encased in metal tube or covering, which is further enclosed in plastic insulation layer. Metal covering saves wires from any type of wear and tear or physical impact. Such cables are little heavier in comparison of normal wires and quite hard to bend.
Keycard switch is a device used to control the functioning of lights, fans, air conditioners along with the entire range of lighting and temperature control facilities in range. Plus, no batteries and wires are required for the operation of such switches. Inserting a card into switch allows energy to transmit the signal, which control all the devices connected to receiver. It takes only some minutes to install and configure. Use of traditional keys to open the hotel rooms is a thing of past already. Today, most of the hotels offer hi-tech keycards that permit guests effortless entry to rooms.
Most people think that power strip is the same electrical product as surge protector but the fact is, it is not true, even if they both look similar. Going through the below written content will give you a knowledge about the main difference between these two and will enable you to take the right decision.
In a very small period of time, LEDs have become a dominant source of light in all parts of the world. Lightfair is organized to tell the people about the inventions that have been done in past few years for the sake of these lights. It is all about deep penetration of LEDs into the lighting market along with the introduction of tuneable light, app based control system, IoT enabled light control and so on.
Here are the things that can be done with the help of new trends, showcased at lightfair.
Tuneable White Light – It offers a dimmable spectrum of colour temperature ranging from warm light to cool light. This kind of light is liked by most of the visitors.
RCCB (residual current circuit breaker) detects current difference between neutral and live conductors. The difference is also known as ‘residual current’. Proper functioning circuits will have balanced neutral and live current and the residual current occurs when there is some potential shock hazard or fault. The device is an RCD i.e. residual current device class of item and circuit breaker, which is a part of its name, indicates that the electrical product sits within costumer unit with the other CBs (circuit breakers).
Circuit breakers are installed in power infrastructure for safety reasons. They are introduced to make sure that fire hazards or any sort of electrical issue would not occur in home or office when system experiences ‘short circuit’ or ‘overload’. This is the only reason; MCB or MCCB should be installed.
Most of the people are confused about the dissimilarity between MCB and MCCB. Both of these devices are circuit breakers yet there is a major difference between them and they are used for specific purposes.
Before we start discussing about the key features, it is more important to know their actual meaning.
