The cause of an arc flash can be minor injuries, third-degree burns, and potential death as well as other harms too, including hearing loss, nerve damage, and cardiac arrest. Performing arc flash analysis can help you to identify the arc flash energy available at specific electrical systems that employees would be exposed at the duration…

In this modern era, whereas everything is connected to power, we need to look into quality of power as well. Hence, poor power quality issues can and will affect the productivity, performance of machines, and electrical bills. Usually, management of the company tends to focus on the mechanical problem often because they are not having…

Most electric motors are designed to run at an approx. 50% to 100% of rated load. Efficiency is usually near 80% of the rated load. The power which is consumed by the electric motor is the losses incurred in making the conversion of electrical to mechanical energy. Hence to minimize electric power consumption, motor losses…

Load flow analysis is performed with the assistance of computer software like ETAP that simulates actual steady-state power grid operating conditions, by enabling the evaluation of bus voltage profiles, losses, real and reactive power flow. Using multiple scenarios, load flow analysis helps the system to run with designed performance criteria. Care Labs is a competent…

High utility bill?, frequent burning out of light bulbs? or experiencing overheating of electrical appliances? These are a few impacts of poor electrical installation. In such cases, the underlying cause may not be easily recognizable as these can occur due to a number of reasons. Therefore, employing a third-party inspection resolves this issue. Care Labs…

An electrical switchgear risk assessment is relevant in any circumstance one works with live parts, power tools, or electric circuits. So, for safe work practice, workplaces will need to carry one out. Electrical equipment and electrical switchgear risk assessment is a planned and scheduled event to help ensure a safe and reliable electrical system. It is used…

Power system requires appropriate analysis, studies, engineering and planning for its finest design and operation In the United States, voltage and current waveform are designed in a sinusoidal wave whose frequency is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency of 60 Hz. By the action of non-linear loads like rectifiers, discharge lighting causes a change in frequencies.The presence…

All electrical installations deteriorate over time making it widely prone to faults, fires and electric shocks. To avoid such electrical hazards, it’s always preferred to carry out electrical safety inspections from time to time. An electrical inspection refers to the thorough check-up of all electrical wiring, connections and installations at a residence. Care Labs offers…

Electrical hazards and incidents are at the topmost priority as safety is concerned for the industry environment. Because it could lead to huge losses to property, severe injuries, or fatal accidents. As per Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI) statistics, there were 166fatal accidents due to electrical hazards in 2019, which was a 3.75% increase over…

Power systems in the United States are designed to operate at a frequency of 60Hz. However, certain types of loads produce currents / voltage with frequencies that are integral multiples of the 60 Hz fundamental frequency. The presence of these higher frequencies is termed as power system harmonics. It is the most common power quality…
