A three-point-delta method provides more accurate resistance measurements in low-voltage applications. Electronic components are continuing to shrink as consumers demand faster, more feature-rich ...
Common traits of digital multimeters (DMMs). Classifying DMMs by their amount of digits. What role do digitizers play in making voltage measurements? Measuring voltage may be the most basic ...
With the right equipment and training, it’s possible to safely work on energized power lines in the 500 kV range with bare hands. Most of us, though, don’t have the right equipment or training, and ...
A precision voltage divider produces a specific fraction of its input voltage using carefully matched resistive components.
High-capacity, multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) have a property often not well understood by electronic designers: the capacitance of these devices varies with applied DC voltage. This phenomenon ...
The new Fluke 377 FC and 378 FC Non-Contact Voltage True-rms AC/DC Clamp Meters can measure voltage and current simultaneously without touching a live wire EVERETT, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Any time an ...
We think it’s a great learning experience to tear back the veil of abstraction and learn a bit more about the hardware found on an Arduino board. This project is a great example. [Scott Daniels] takes ...
Detection of uncontrolled electricity along city streets and sidewalks is a concern for many municipalities and utilities. The preferred method of identifying these locations is to seek out these ...
When clients call you because operating problems on pieces of their 120V equipment cause them to suspect their facility's power supply, you have to decide where to start your investigation. Don't ...
