    An Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB) (now referred to as residual current circuit breaker) is a safety device used in electrical installations with high earth impedance to prevent shock. History ELCBs were mainly used on TT earthing systems. Nowadays‚ ELCBs have been mostly replaced by residual-current devices (RCDs). However many ELCBs are still in use. Early ELCBs responded to sine wave fault currents‚ but not to rectified fault current. Over time‚ filtering against nuisance trips has also

    voltage. Transformers work only with a varying electric current‚ such as alternating current (AC). Transformers are important in the distribution of electric power. They raise the voltage of the electricity generated at a power plant to the high levels needed to transmit the electricity efficiently. Other transformers reduce the voltage at the locations where the electricity is used. Many household devices contain transformers to raise or lower house-current voltage as needed. Television sets and stereo

    prisoners. Edison tried to popularise the term “Westinghoused” as electrocution.  In 1887‚ a prize of $US20 000 was offered to the company that could design and construct a system to generate hydro-electric power at Niagara Falls and transmit the electricity to the city of Buffalo (35km away from the falls). Westinghouse won the competition with the proposal of AC. The reason for AC winning is the ability to transmit power over long distances.  By the late 1890s AC’s advantages was clear and large

    and Thomas Edison battled over what type of electricity {Alternating Current or Direct Current} would become standard in the United States (Nix). People today take electricity for granted‚ but during this time period people were just beginning to dawn the idea of having electricity in households. The vast majority of people had to utilize more dangerous types of electricity such as gas lamps. Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison both invented a type of electricity and the people‚ scientists‚ and the press
