The National Electrical Code® (NEC®) was developed over a century ago during a vibrant and exciting time in American history. In the decades following the Civil War‚ an industrial revolution arises in the United States fueled by the technological advancements in electricity. In September of 1882‚ Thomas Edison installs the first commercial electrical system at Pearl Street Station in Lower Manhattan. Within a few short years‚ electrical light and power spreads from city to city and from industrial

Lab Report 3: Electrical Properties of Ceramic Materials Lab III: Physical Properties of Materials By Will Paxton 3/5/07 Abstract The electrical properties of 5 different samples were studied. Characterization of these samples was through the dielectric properties‚ as this is a very important step. The capacitance was measured for each sample incrementally while heating them up to 135ºC. In a second part to the experiment‚ piezoelectric samples were studied‚ and their piezoelectric coefficient

Refractive index measurement is actually a measurement of the speed of light in a medium. The speed of light (usually denoted by c) is 299 792 458 m/s in vacuum. In other media the speed of light is lower than this value‚ and the refractive index‚ R.I.‚ of a medium is a measure of how much the speed of light is reduced in the medium. The refractive index (n) of a medium is defined as the ratio of speed of light in vacuum (c) in to that in the medium (v) The speed of light in a medium depends on
