What is Electricity? Electricity is the continuous movement of a sea of electrons (stream of electrons) from one point to another, through a conducting material such as a copper wire . An electric circuit is like a pathway through which an electric current (stream of electrons) flows. A circuit consists of a source, a conductor and a load (Resistance). See Figure.1.1 for an illustration of a DC circuit . Figure 1.1: A DC circuit DC Quantity A DC Quantity is that which has a constant magnitude or size and flows in one direction, hence the term Direct Quantity . A DC circuit consists of:   DC Voltage source , Direct Current and Conductor (Resistance). Before we look at each in detail, let’s use the analogy of a water tank to describe the three parts of a DC current, namely: voltage , current and resistance. Using this analogy, the charge is represented by the amount of water in the tank,  the voltage is represented by the water pressure, the current is represented by wate...

Smart Cities & Infrastructure: Shaping the Future of Urban Living As the world’s urban population continues to grow at an unprecedented rate, the concept of smart cities has evolved from visionary ideas to practical realities across the globe. At its core, a smart city uses advanced electrical and digital technologies to improve the quality of life of its residents, optimize resources, and enhance sustainability. Electrical engineers play a vital role in designing and implementing the infrastructure that makes these smart cities possible. Smart City & Infrastructure What is a Smart City? A smart city integrates Internet of Things (IoT) devices, sensors, communication networks, and intelligent software platforms to create an interconnected urban ecosystem. This ecosystem monitors and controls key services such as energy management, transportation, water supply, waste management, public safety, and environmental quality. The goal is to create efficient, resilient, and livable ...

  DELAY SWITCHING WITHOUT EFFECT When the delay-switch is excited, a new action on a push button has no effect on the   temporization period. As such, the light goes off after the predetermined time with or without action on the push button multiple times. ENERGY ECONOMIZARION DIAGRAM OF DELAY SWITCH In order to economize the energy, we can: –         - During the day, put off the circuit; –         - During peak hours of functioning, allow the light to shine permanently; –         - During the nights, functioning with the delay-switch.
