A number of measurements require an amplifier whose input terminals are galvanically isolated from its output and power terminals. Such devices, often called parametric or isolation amplifiers, are ...

Today, optocouplers are a ubiquitous electronic component, found in almost any piece of electrical equipment and in most industry segments. Since their introduction over twenty five years ago, ...

Designed specifically for high-voltage sensing, a new generation of optically isolated amplifiers make monitoring and system protection circuits more accurate and easier to design. These iso-amps can ...

Electric motors that are either poorly maintained or which lack the proper electrical protection are the second greatest cause of electrical fires. So says the Factory Mutual Research Corp., a ...

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 ...
