“Pringle Switch”

I think these devices go up to around 6000 amps at 600V AC. I don’t think they are as common anymore in new construction with disadvantages compared to low-voltage high-current breakers like the Eaton Magnum breakers.

It’s not shown here but overcurrent and short protection is provided by fuses. Also, arc chutes aren’t shown here. I think some switches have arc chutes as well as a “flicker” blade that makes first, and breaks last, to handle any arcing. #ElectricalEngineer #electricity

Hi floss.social. Just moved in from https://fosstodon.org/@ygor

I'm an #ElectricalEngineer from #Brazil, currently living in #France for many years. I work as a #SoftwareDeveloper, writing proprietary software for #microfluidics (I do wish I could work on #FreeSoftware for a living instead). My favorite programming language is #rustlang, but I use/have used about a dozen other languages, they're alright. I'm also a fan of #animation.

#introduction

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬! 💫
At last week’s @girlsday 26 students had the chance to explore careers in science that are still often considered “male-dominated.” They experienced hands-on research at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy – not only as astronomers, but also as electrical engineers and precision mechanics. 👩‍🔬🔧💡
🛠️ They could choose from four exciting workshops:
🔭 Pulsar Workshop: 10 students worked with real data from the 100-meter radio telescope in Effelsberg 📡 to search for pulsars – which can even be used to test Einstein’s theory of general relativity. Our colleagues provided worksheets and the necessary software for the task. 💻
🤖 Line Follower: 4 participants soldered and assembled an autonomous robot that follows a pre-set line – all by itself! And yes, they got to take it home with them. 🔩✨
⚡ Tesla Transformer: 8 girls built their very own Tesla transformer – strong enough to light up a fluorescent tube just by being nearby – without any contact! 💥💡
🧩 Puzzle Workshop: 4 students crafted their own aluminum puzzle pieces in our workshop and learned that massive structures like radio telescopes are built from many small, custom-made parts – not mass-produced ones. 🛠️🔍
Curiosity, energy, and lots of tech – thank you to everyone who made this day so special! 💜👩‍🔧 We’re already looking forward to next year!

Fire chaos puts Heathrow and Grid bosses in the firing line

"More than 1,300 #flights were cancelled, affecting almost 300,000 passengers. More cancellations are expected...

The fire appears to have taken hold after 25,000 litres of oil used as cooling insulation within one of the #transformers ignited. The website Politico reported that early investigations suggested a mistake by an #ElectricalEngineer could have been to blame."

In my career as an #ElectricalEngineer #EE over the past four decades, I've used several #HP #RPN #calculators (yes, only RPN). Of all those, my absolute favourites, in descending preference, are these:

• HP-15C
• HP-41CX
• HP-32S
• HP-35s

Ingeneous method.

That's a big gap between "1800" and 95.

Wondering if an #ElectricalEngineer could do some magic with motor start capacitors?

A more interesting problem than sorting out who purchased so many watermelons or had how many sheep...

I'd like to introduce myself: I am an #electricalengineer that makes #opensourcehardware projects. You can find them on my github at https://github.com/profdc9 .

First , an #amateurradio transceiver that can be built from improvised parts https://github.com/profdc9/RFBitBanger. Modes: #morse code, #SSB or a low bandwidth #digimode SCAMP I created which features #ForwardErrorCorrection . A #QSO TODAY 2023 talk on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fbgs_4QsKnE . https://www.openresearch.institute/ as well for info.

Hey EE folks - Here at the University of Washington Applied Physics Lab we've got an EE 4 and Senior EE position open. It's a great gig doing interesting oceanographic work where many field oppurtunities exist.

Decades ago, we used to joke that the #LaplaceTransform separates an #Electrician from an #ElectricalEngineer.

I suppose the #ZTransform is that line, today.

Thinking over modding my ~1998 Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Force Feedback Steering wheel. Back in the day (~10 years ago) someone showed how to make it go up to around 900 degrees. (See below why only 900)

Problem is that there is from what I can tell, 7 sets of wires that go to buttons inside the wheel, like face buttons, and at 900 degrees you're putting a ton of stress on them.

So I'm reaching out into the world and asking all of you: How would you solve this?

Hey, so, what's the deal with Texas Instruments pricing through distribution? Clearly TI wants everyone to buy direct, because they're consistently several dollars cheaper than Digikey/Mouser/etc.

Is it just that simple, they're able to jack up the price through distribution? #ee #electronics #electricalengineer
