Electrical

In these posts, I explain electrical engineering like the working of AC supply, circuit breakers, capacitors, inductors, control systems, Mosfet, thyristors, IGBT, inverters, DC supply, SMPS, power transmission, etc.

I will also cover power factors, reactive power, transformers like PT, SMPS transformer, open circuit current transformer, and also locomotive engine working concepts

Difference between Neutral and Earth – 17 differences

difference between neutral and earth wire

I will explain the difference between neutral wire and earth in the AC supply in this technical article. A total of 17 differences between neutral and earth are discussed in this article.

The three-phase AC supply consists of 4 wires. R phase, Y phase, B phase wire, and a neutral wire. In addition to that, we have earth wire also. The neutral wire and earth wire of the AC supply have totally different purpose.

Power factor correction concept

In this post, I discuss: why “power factor correction” and its method, the causes and problems of low power factor, and how to correct power factor and its advantages. You will also learn fixed step type and continuous variable PF correction, the need for fast correction (SVC), and the need for an extra inductor.

There are many more advantages of power factor correction discussed in this article.

I will also discuss extra knowledge as per my industry experience of designing such control equipment. The power factor correction is done for many reasons.
