    Curr/Volt profile in circuits with Drop-in T8 LED Replacements vs normal T8 Fluorescent?

    Hi, I'm troubleshooting a 'smart switch' issue which is connected to an existing fluorescent 4' 2-bulb (T8) fixture where I have replaced the fluorescent tubes with LED drop-in LED T8 tubes (no re-wiring necessary, so ballast is still in the circuit). Vendor indicates that the switch may be...

    NFPA70E battery 100 VDC vs OSHA 50 volt standard

    I just finished the NFPA70E 2021 online training. As far as I understand it the NFPA 70E is OSHA compliant but, I feel like the guidance between them disagrees when it comes to the shock hazard of DC batteries. I work with EV type battery systems 28V to 800 V so, this is important. OSHA general...

    Industrial USB 5 volt outlet

    Hello all, I'm surprised how hard it is to find a USB outlet for industrial panels. I've found several small compact converters (I think aimed at vehicles) that give out the correct voltage and low cost but not DIN rail mounted. I was looking for a 24 VDC power supply with a USB (or 3) ports on...

    what is the voltage? 180 volt? 220 volt - Myanmar

    If I turn off the breaker and measure the voltage across the breaker (upper and lower screws), the voltage is around 180 volt. If I measure the breaker's upper screw and the grounding bar of the breaker box, the voltage is 220. What is the actual voltage and why is the discrepancy? Thanks.

    12 Volt lighting.

    Hi, I'm looking for some advice on the lighting in a bathroom. I recently had an EICR report carried out and it was pointed out that the bathroom lights were not to the correct standard. They should be IP65 rated and it has also been suggested that they should be fire resistant. The present...

    Practicality of 400 volt equipment

    Would it be practical, or technically possible to economically mass produce 400 volt single phase consumer goods? Light bulbs, kettles, heaters, chargers, TVs, hobs, vacuum cleaners, washers, dryers, microwaves, tools, ect ect? I'm thinking this would save a lot of copper and make wiring both...

    92 volt touch potential

    I'm really confused by this engineering article. How can the maximum touch voltage be 92 volts on a 230 volt system when in theory it ought to be 115 volts or higher? https://www.gt-engineering.it/en/en-iec-standards/iec-60364-4-41/tn-systems Huh?

    12 volt LED flashing when off.

    LED lamp flashes every 10-15 seconds when switched off. The lamp is in a bathroom in circuit with a timed overrun extract fan. I understand that the cause can be induced voltage, or bleed off from the electronic switch in the fan timer. Is there a simple solution to this?
