The demand for reliable power systems in critical facilities continues to increase, putting pressure on engineers to design reliable systems within project budgets that are often decreasing.

A devastating event doesn’t always originate from a natural disaster. At any moment during construction or operation, something could go wrong — and it will.

WASHINGTON — A far-reaching vision for the future of the electric grid is emerging at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

As the demand for electrical power increases, distribution systems are expanded to accommodate the increased demand. Stiffened transmission systems, increased substation capacity, and added on-site and distributed generation all contribute to increases in available fault currents.

The electric utility industry is undergoing a major transformation driven by new sources of energy generation (solar and wind power), consumer demand for faster and more affordable services, cybersecurity, and big data.

The global retail sector has grown during the last few years, and the U.S. is leading the pack. Specifically, the demand for ready-to-eat products has increased, bringing with it additional demand for commercial refrigeration.

Riello UPS introduces the Master HP UL, a UL® listed, three-phase UPS for 65-250 kVA applications. Built entirely with IGBT and digital signal processing (DSP), the Master HP UL features online double-conversion technology for maximum power supply protection and power quality with a clean sine wave output.

B&K Precision introduced the 9200 Series, its latest multi-range programmable DC power supply line. This new series includes four 200 W-600 W models that can deliver power in any combination of the rated voltage and current up to the maximum output power of the supply. With voltage and current ranges up to 150 V and 25 A, these programmable DC power supplies are suitable for a wide variety of uses including electronics manufacturing, R&D, service and repair, and education.
