  • Types of Cables

    Introduction The electric cable refers to the cables that help to distribute the eclectic power. The components of the electric cables are the conductor, dielectric as well as sheath. The conductor of cables provides a conducting path and it is also very helpful for the insulation as well as dielectric withstands the voltage service. The…

  • Transistor As Switch Amplifier

    Introduction The transistor is the kind of service that works in an active region, the transistor acts as an amplifier and in case it acts as a switch it tends to perform in various cutoff and saturation regions. In the transistor that is working in the cutoff state, both the collector base and the emitter-base…

  • Resistor

    Introduction The resistor is an electric device for limiting the current flow in an electric body. The resistor is also very much applicable for the introduction and control of the amount of electricity in the circuit. This electric device works as a resistance in the electric flow and it is used almost in every electrical…

  • Resistor Colour Codes

    Introduction The resistor is a tiny electric body having printed with many colours on the body to denote the different values of electrical resistance. The colour band of the resistor is called resistor colour code. The electric designers print the rate of tolerance, resistance value as well as wattage rating on the body of a…

  • Difference Between Series and Parallel Circuits

    Introduction The difference between these two aspects of a series circuit and a parallel circuit is that within a series circuit the same amount of current flows. Here the currents flow through the components are placed in it. Differently, it is seen that the parallel circuits shows the placing of components in different branches. It…

  • Difference between MCB and MCCB

    A circuit breaker is a device which makes or breaks the circuit for normal switching and in case of any fault in the circuit. Based on the application, a number of circuit breakers are designed such as MCB, RCCB, MCCB, ELCB, ACB, OCB, etc. In this article, we will discuss the major differences between MCB and MCCB…
