(THE CONVERSATION) – The modern world runs on electricity, and wires are what carry that electricity to every light, television, heating system, cellphone and computer on the planet. Unfortunately, on ...

High-pressure electron tunneling spectroscopy reveals the presence of a superconducting gap in H₃S and D₃S. Superconductors are special materials that allow electricity to flow without any resistance, ...

Researchers show nanoscale memristors can calibrate electrical resistance without complex labs or extreme conditions, opening ...

In Episode 34 of EC&M Tech Talk, Electrical Trainer Randy Barnett covers three main points when it comes to earth resistance, also known as ground resistance. First, the National Electrical Code in ...

Insulation failure is the root cause of many electrical conductors and equipment failures. When insulation fails, not only can equipment be damaged, but fire and shock can also result. Ideally, when ...
