What is the Utilisation cat for NS MCCB and ICS and ICU percentage ?

IEC 60947 define ICS as the "rated service short-circuit breaking capacity" while ICU as the "rated ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity". The Ics is a percentage of Icu. For...

Are there any standards for sizing the neutral/PE bars?

The earthing schemes and sizing differ according to the earthing scheme (TT,TN-C,TN-S,IT...etc). According to the required earthing scheme, you should size your earthing and neutral conductors. IEC...

What is the meaning of "minimum breaking current" for MV fuse? How does it...

The minimum breaking current of a fuse (or I3) is the minimum current value which causes the fuse to blow and break the current. For our range of MV fuses, these values are between 3 and 5 times the...

What is the definition of ANSI 27R - Remanent undervoltage?

Protection used to check that remanent voltage sustained by rotating machines has been cleared before allowing the busbar supplying the machines to be re-energized, to avoid electrical and mechanical...

Why a 4-20 mA is preferred to 0-10V in analog signals?

The bottom span 4 mA expresses a minimum signal value than a broken wire. Since the loop current never falls to zero, it can be loop powered, allowing for a two-wire circuit. 20 mA is considered an...
