BMW’s iX3 is the company’s first normal-looking all-electric car | Circuit Breaker Parts
Still can’t bring myself to install SSRs on “high current” applications, either. High quality mechanical relays. Electric blankets have lots of testing to ensure they’re safely insulated from the user. They also don’t get nearly as hot. They also use too much power to economically run from a low ...Read more -
Microsoft announces Xbox One keyboard and mouse support with Razer partnership | 25 Amp Circuit Breaker
The use of isolation transformers that is suggested here is very dangerous as the residual current detector of the installation won’t detect anything if one gets electrocuted from the secondary of the transformer. I’d rather not use an isolation transformer unless I really need. You’ll noti...Read more -
2018 Kia Niro PHEV Review â A Spreadsheet Nerdâs Dream | 25 Amp Circuit Breaker
For while it inevitably doesn’t turn back the clock and serve up the giggle-a-minute thrills of hatches of yesteryear, unencumbered by safety or emissions regulations as they were, the Corolla is a genuinely enjoyable car to drive, gripping the road and controlling its body movements very well, a...Read more -
Here’s What You Need To Charge Your Electric Car At Home | 220v Contactor Relay
Dumb question but in wiring up a bench setup as described – in what order should the isolation transformer, RCD and isolator switch be connected up. RCD on mains side of transformer along with isolator? Double pole isolator for live and neutral? Maybe add a suggested circuit diagram to the excell...Read more -
What Most Techs Get Wrong About Wire Sizing | 2017-09-18 | 19mm Momentary Push Button
You’ll notice that there’s a single general lighting circuit that’s warmer than the other breakers in this panel; again, it’s only a small increase in temperature, so I’m not concerned. If it were much warmer, I might question why. All of this, if you suppose that yo...Read more -
Samsung’s 2018 TVs now support FreeSync for smoother gaming | 19mm Momentary Push Button
Meh, just use a relay for your “PWM”. It’s much easier, and you have a huge low pass filter. You can easily go up to a few Hz switching with a good realy. Use a solid state relay and it’s even better (you might break your mechanical relay after prolonged use). You can burn your house down in many...Read more -
Looking Mains Voltage In The Eye And Surviving | 220v Contactor Relay
A lot of times these days, it seems like we hackers are a little like kids in a candy store. With so many cool devices available for pennies at the click of a mouse, it’s temptingly easy to order first and ask questions about quality later. Most of the time that works out just fine, with the main...Read more -
Here’s a sure red flag the home contractor you’re considering is untrustworthy | 19mm Momentary Push Button
Step 1: To find the voltage rating of the MOV, allow for 20% headroom to account for voltage swell and power-supply tolerances: 24 V dc à 1.2 = 28.8 V dc. Given that no varistors have a voltage rating of exactly 28.8 V, check the datasheets for specifications for 31-V dc MOVs. Fdx Advisors Inc...Read more
