In this article, we discussed about earthing system, grounding system and its difference. Earthing system and grounding system are more over same. In UK and IEC standards we call it earthing system but in US we call it grounding system. It connects specific parts of an electric power system with the ground, typically the Earth's conductive surface, for safety and functional purposes. The earthing system we use can affect the safety and electromagnetic compatibility of the installation. In addition to electric power systems, other systems may require grounding for safety or function. Read more
In this article, we discussed What is fuse wire and whether we can use soldering wire as fuse wire. What is difference between fuse wire and soldering wire. I have explained how to fix a fuse which is blown at home in Malayalam. We also explained fuse and fuse wire. The theory behind them and there working principle in detail in Malayalam. We also explained the use of copper wire as a fuse wire, things to take care of while using copper. How many strands of copper we should use while fixing blown fuse at home? Proof with calculation and Read more
In this article, we discussed whether we can mix and use Class 2 & Class 5 cables together. Similarly, Can We Use Aluminum & Copper Cable Together? What will be the problem if we use both together in a single project? If we can use both in a single project how to use them safely? The simplest way of using both together is to connect both cables using terminal blocks or connectors and not by joining directly because over time it may get loose due to differences in expansion due to heating while transferring current.

In this article, we discussed Why Does My Plug Get Hot? We explain all major reasons like Loose Plug Fuse Clips or Wire Connected, Overloaded Plug, Corroded or Pins/Socket and Loose Connection within the Socket. Read more
In this article, we discussed whether changing a single-phase line to a 3 phase to get a continuous power supply is better or not. That is if you are facing problems like constant power failures in the power line coming to your house and at the same there is a power supply in other lines. The main thing is that it is practically possible but the cost which comes along with it in order to change from a single phase to three phases will be around 15000 to 20000 rupees. It will be better to consult with KSEB or an Read more
In this article, we discussed how to select a generator for a shop. Here we have also discussed the method of generator load calculation for a small shop and medium size grocery shop or supermarket. What is the common equipment connected to such shops and its wattage? How to convert it to KVA for generator size selection, etc. Read more
