Edvard Csanyi - Author at EEP-Electrical Engineering Portal

Hi, I'm an electrical engineer, programmer and founder of EEP - Electrical Engineering Portal. I worked twelve years at Schneider Electric in the position of technical support for low- and medium-voltage projects and the design of busbar trunking systems.

I'm highly specialized in the design of LV/MV switchgear and low-voltage, high-power busbar trunking (<6300A) in substations, commercial buildings and industry facilities. I'm also a professional in AutoCAD programming.

4 Things Soil Resistivity Depends On

Though the ground itself being a very large body can act as an infinite sink for currents flowing into it and can be considered to be having very low resistance to current flow, the resistance of soil layers immediately adjacent to the… Read more

Seven Methods To Avoid Insulator Flashovers

Contamination caused insulator flashovers produce frequent outages in severely contaminated areas. Lines closer to the ocean are in more danger of becoming contaminated. Several countermeasures have been proposed to improve insulator performance. The most frequently used methods are: Increasing leakage… Read more

10 Important Definitions Applied To Low Voltage Fuses

The simplest of all overcurrent protective devices are fuses. A fuse is an overcurrent protective device with a circuit-opening fusible part that is heated and severed by the passage of the overcurrent through it. Let’s talk about ten important definitions that are… Read more
