Choosing electric conductors for dc installations

electric conductors

Electric conductors are essential elements in any electrical installation. Their selection for DC installations differs from the procedure used in AC. On the other hand, for the process of acquiring this material, it is important to know that cable is not the same as a conductor. For this, we recommend the post Cables and electrical […]

Electrical resistance in cables and its variation with temperature

electrical resistance in cables

Knowing how to calculate the electrical resistance in cables, in its various forms, for an electrical conductor is of great importance. This knowledge allows you to determine this parameter even in situations where you may not have access to specific tables or other technical information. This knowledge can help you quickly diagnose issues with a […]
