Testing electrical & electronic component

07/03/2011 by 2 Comments

To be a good troubleshooter,we must know how to testing electrical and electronic components.Several components are common used in electrical and electronic device or equipment.This technique is a common essential for the troubleshooter.

The important measuring device that we should have to perform a testing task is a ” Multimeter”.This meter is used to measure continuity or resistance in components.

If you not understand what is this,please read my last post title ” what is multimeter” and ” how to use multimeter?”.I explain detail in my video about multimeter. Read more

Two Point Method

01/02/2011 by Leave a Comment

This is another alternative method for earthing resistance measurement when excellent ground is already available.When we want to perform the measurement for earthing resistance in the compact room or tight area and want to put the two(2) auxiliary rod  may be a problem.

So..to solve this problem,we can use the two point method measurement.This measurement concept is two point into the ground in series technique used to the reading obtained.

The earth surface or other ground must be very low in resistance so that it will be negligible in the final measurement. The lead resistances will also be measured and should be deducted from the final measurement. read more

Grounding resistance measurement

04/10/2010 by 2 Comments

Grounding or Earthing is the compulsory device for electrical installation.It’s the end point for electrical residue when leakage happen on electrical circuit or installation.

Good grounding can make a different of current balancing in phase during electrical leakage and Residual Current Circuit Breaker will activate if current leakage value over the sensitivity.( 10 mA,100 mA,30 mA,300 mA).

To get a good grounding,we should make sure the resistance is minimum.For the best resistance value is “0 ohm” or less than 5 ohm.That why grounding resistance measurement is important because we need to ensure our grounding is good. read more

What is Electric?

27/08/2010 by 3 Comments

Electrical definition.

WHAT IS ELECTRIC ? This is a question often asked by people around the world for those who wish to enter the electrical field, they should understand basic electricity.It is very important because electricity can not be seen with the naked eye.we only know about the theory of electricity. in the field of electrical “knowledge is power ” to ensure that we and electrical equipment in a secure and functioning well.We must have a strong basic of electrical..

Ok…here from my simple understanding,Basic of Electric is a electron ( negative charge ) always around a proton (positive charge) and neutron caused by the force of attraction between protons and electrons
