| | | The demand to face power quality (PQ) problems head on requires that facility engineers and managers (FEMs) make the decision to find out if a PQ problem really exists, and, if a PQ problem does exist, then how is it affecting the plant. The question that must be answered is, “What is the financial impact?” And this must be answered within a reasonable... |

| In this EC&M Tech Talk, master electrician Randy Barnett explains the requirements for non-power-limited remote-control and signaling circuits. Using a mock-up of a main power circuit the video begins with an overview of the components, the construction and operation of the motor starter and then moves into the control circuit. |
