The What: Current RMS will demonstrate its new Services Module, which allows users to manage services associated with the renting and sale of inventory, at its InfoComm booth, C12329. The What Else: ...

Extech Instruments announces its MA640 600A True RMS AC/DC Clamp Meters + NCV that has a higher accuracy rating then standard RMS meters. To use a clamp meter, only one conductor is normally passed ...

Measuring AC current (220-V mains RMS current) is not as simple as measuring DC current. In DC current measurement, you can simply hook the oscilloscope probe to the shunt resistor and calculate the ...

The ACA-20RM-ALM series digital, true-rms AC ammeters provide a user-settable over-current alarm and measure/display true-rms, non-sinusoidal AC currents. They are completely self-contained and ...

Understanding the causes, similarities, and differences between current and voltage distortion will help you pinpoint most power quality problems. When a writer or speaker mentions harmonic distortion ...

This is the second part of a two-part series on the methodologies used to find the short circuit current duties of circuit breakers and fuses. The first part, Short Circuit Current Duties of Circuit ...

It's hard to stay up to date when you are floating in a sea of technical jargon. However, it's imperative that engineers know the terminology associated with the areas in which they work. And that's ...

The ACSN100-AE-F AC current switch has a fixed setpoint of 0.5 A and monitors current up to 100 A. The normally open solid-state switch output rated for 120 VAC/DC, 0.15 A and has a small size, making ...
