Electrical Help at Your Fingertips

Unlike an asynchronous AC motor, a synchronous AC motor rotates at the same speed as the frequency of the AC power supply. In order to achieve this, the synchronous AC motor must be synchronized with the power supply using a feedback system. Read more..

A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC), which periodically reverses direction, to direct current (DC), which flows in only one direction. The process is known as rectification. Read more..

An AFCI is a type of circuit breaker that is designed to protect against electrical fires caused by arcing faults. Read more..

AFCIs work by sensing when an arc fault is about to occur and then interrupting the flow of electricity before the arc can form. Read more..
