Origin Researchers and engineers in the mid-20th century pioneered the concept of heat shrink tubing as they sought novel methods to protect and insulate electrical components. In the 1950s and 1960s, Raychem Corporation, founded by Paul Cook in 1957, played a pivotal role in inventing and patenting heat shrink technology. …
Originally, insulators were made from materials like ceramic and glass. But in 1963, a new type, made from polymers, was introduced. However, recent improvements in their design and making have made them popular with power companies and utilities. These insulators have a fiberglass core and are covered with protective parts …
Why is understanding the difference between Surge Arrester and Lightning Arrester crucial? Did you know the UK’s weather department reports over 3 million lightning flashes every day around the world? That means about 44 strikes happen every single second. But if lightning strikes are so common how do people protect …
Do you know what helps maintain the safety of you and your electrical appliances from fault current? A metal rod called Earth Rod. These Copper Rods establish quality earthing systems in overhead, underground electricity distribution and transmission networks. They provide ground contact in all soil conditions like high voltage substations, …
In this blog, we will understand the surge risks faced in EV charging stations and the process of choosing the right Surge Protector Devices for your EV Charging Station. The surge risks associated with Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations are an emerging concern as the adoption of EVs accelerates globally. …
For safe electrical earthing and bonding, the choice of an appropriate Rod Earthing is pivotal for ensuring safety, reliability, and longevity of electrical installations. Rod Earthing serve as a crucial component in grounding systems, providing a path for fault currents to safely dissipate into the earth. This blog delves into …
In this blog we will understand how to terminate a cable lug into an Earth bar, by the end of this blog you will understand the factors determining and methods utilised in the process. This blog serves as an in-depth guide on cable lug termination onto earth bars, crucial for …
As we described in our previous blog, ‘Lightning Protection System Design and Products’, Surge Protection Devices or SPD’s are an important part of any building’s Internal Lightning Protection System (LPS). SPD’s are designed to protect sensitive electronic & electrical equipment by limiting transient overvoltage and diverting surge currents. SPD’s are …
Multiport satellite connector & distribution box are important electrical components used in the power distribution systems at homes, offices, and industries. The main purpose of both electrical parts is to extend electrical connectivity, supply sharing, tap-offs, and network scaling in different conditions and circumstances. What Are Multiport Connectors? Multiport connectors, …
A hot line clamp is a metal tool used to connect line taps. Its main job is to insulate transformers from the high voltage in transmission lines. These clamps are commonly used to link transformers to hot lines. They’re essential for making distribution connections at line taps and are widely …
