Electrical Grids: What are Bus and Busbar?
Some places, like factories and warehouses, have moving machines and appliances configured so that the workstations keep shifting. A good example is a factory where machines are moving along an assembly line. If the electricity support and source remained stationary, this would create a chaotic scene since cables would be dangling all over the place.…

What is the Role of Transformers in a Power System?
The current emits a magnetic field as it flows through the cable. When an alternating current is passed through the cable, the magnetic field changes in polarity and may increase or decrease in strength as the current changes in direction. However, when a direct current is passed through the same cable, the magnetic field will…

What is Power Distribution?
A transformer is made up of two cores with an electromagnetic field between them, each wrapped in copper wiring. The power travels through a core wrapped with several winds of copper wiring when entering the transformer and leaves through the other core that has fewer winds, resulting in less voltage. Although the concept of how…
