Is COMPLETE Line a standalone product? Or is it a product group? Not exactly either. COMPLETE Lineis a system of products, software and services with industry-specific solutions from Phoenix Contact to accelerate, simplify and digitize the production and manufacturing of control panels. COMPLETE Line products are compatible with each other and compact. In fact, if … Read more
The current carried in Medium Voltage (MV) switchgear panels, which are components of energy distribution and transmission networks, does not only create electrical effects. It also creates magnetic fields and thus eddy currents around the current-carrying busbars. The intensity and distribution of the magnetic field can directly affect the performance of the devices in the … Read more
Global warming and environmental problems require fossil fuels to be replaced by cleaner and sustainable energy sources. Renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, biomass and hydroelectricity; It offers attractive solutions in terms of low carbon emissions and sustainability. However, the intermittent and unpredictable production structure of these resources causes balance problems in classical energy … Read more
After a century spent under the rule of fossil fuels, the world is breaking its course into a new era. The most symbolic carrier of this transformation is electric vehicles (EV – electric vehicles). As silence replaces exhaust fumes, this change on the roads means not only the evolution of engine systems, but also the … Read more
Electricity tariffsis determined in line with the Electricity Market Law No. 6446, the Electricity Market Tariffs Regulation and EMRA decisions. EMRA creates pricing mechanisms that are cost-based and include a reasonable rate of return for each component, taking into account the activities in the energy supply chain (generation, transmission, distribution and retail sales). Tariffs regulated … Read more
Building strengthening can be defined as an engineering practice that involves a set of techniques and processes applied to increase the structural durability of existing structures. This process is generally carried out to increase the durability of structures against earthquake risk and to prevent or reduce damage that may occur due to aging or structural … Read more
The lists prepared by Engineering News-Record (ENR) magazine, taking into account the data it receives in many fields every year, are seen as a great source of prestige for the construction industry. In its bulletin titled “Market Volatility Smooths Gains”, which was included in the “Top 250 Global Contractor” list published by Engineering News-Record (ENR) … Read more
Ensuring the reliability and efficiency of power grids is critical in modern infrastructure management. One of the most widely accepted techniques for assessing cable health. Very Low Frequency (VLF) testing; Detecting insulation deficiency is a basic method to prevent unexpected malfunctions and extend the operational life of cable systems. Power cables were traditionally tested with … Read more
In the TT system, the neutral point on the grid side is directly grounded. The grounding of the facility is carried out with a grounding electrode, independent of the network. Therefore, when there is a fault (e.g. phase contact with a device body), the fault current flows between the network ground point and the plant … Read more
Transformers are stationary electrical machines that allow us to obtain different voltage and current values from the other windings at the same frequency and the same power by means of electromagnetic induction by applying the alternating voltage to one of the windings. Transformers are generally used in energy transmission and distribution. In addition, there are … Read more
