All questions and answers are based on the 2017 NEC. Underlined text indicates a Code change. Q. What does the Code require for overcurrent protection of flexible cords, flexible cables, and fixture ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. Protecting power transistors against overcurrent failure has always been a challenging issue in power circuit design. In order to protect against even ...

Microcontroller units (MCUs) are generally limited with lower drive on the I/Os. Most of the applications requiring MCU boards to drive high-current loads need discrete implementation and additional ...

For modern distribution protection, Negative Phase Sequence (NPS) Protection is often relegated in favor of common elements such as Overcurrent (OC) or Earth Fault (EF), but NPS is an incredibly ...

Whatever your applications design(s) — digital multimeter, oscilloscope, on-board charger (OBC), plug-in battery for hybrid or electric vehicles, power supply for a motor drives, etc. — it needs to ...
