1. It’s easy to get your first job Electrical engineering students fairly easy find their first job because most employers in electrical field search for fresh mind‚ with fresh knowledge and at the same time they get young people they can mold to their own specific needs and make experts out of them. 2. You can work in another country Working as electrical engineer opens you lots of opportunities in other countries. Laws of math‚ electricity and physics are universal and your gained knowledge

day‚ Studying electrical engineering technician/technology gives you lots of opportunities of having Variety of career choices. Finishing the three years program at Algonquin college allows you to take many different paths in life. For example‚ you can become an electrical engineering technician which allows you to be a solar energy technician after. On the other hand‚ these two jobs have many differences which make comparing between them possible. First‚ electrical engineering technicians

familiarization of electrical apparatus. Name Image Symbol Uses of functions Galvanometer A galvanometer is a very sensitive meter which is used to measure tiny currents‚ usually 1mA or less. Ammeter An ammeter is used to measure current. Voltmeter A voltmeter is used to measure voltage. Resistor (Fixed and Variable) Fixed Variable A resistor restricts the flow of current‚ for example to limit the current passing through an LED. A resistor is used with a capacitor in

ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS A conductor is an object or type of material which permits the flow of electric charges in one or more directions. For example‚ a wire is an electrical conductor that can carry electricity along its length. Physics All conductors contain electrical charges‚ which will move when an electric potential difference (measured in volts) is applied across separate points on the material. This flow of charge (measured in amperes) is what is meant by electric current. In most

It is very obvious from the comments posted in this thread that the people driving the use of the RaspberryPi as a PLC training tool have not conducted any professional‚ electrical and electronic engineering research into the design criteria required for an educational PLC or are prepared to acknowledge the legally required European Union safety compliance to IEC61508 and IEC 611313.

Electrical Cable Cross section is just a two-dimensional view of a slice through an object. An often asked question: How can you convert the diameter of a round wire d to the circle cross section surface or the cross-section area A (slice plane) to the cable diameter d? Resistance varies inversely with the cross-sectional area of a wire. | ------------------------------------------------- Top of Form | Wire diameter d | unit | | | Cross-sectional area A | unit2 | | |

Introduction This experiment tests electrical conduction. Electrical conduction is the transportation of an electrical charge through a substance. This is done by the electrical charge/current being sent through the substance via electrons. These electrons carry the electrical current/charge throughout the substance’s length until another conductor is able to receive the electrons charge. Part B: Risk Assessment: During the construction of “the modified hurler‚ “
