    ABB AMVAC in California and how do you do the control design

    Does anyone in California using the ABB AMVAC? I have seen other thread that have indicated it is different way of thinking process http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=136356 http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=133558 If it does not have a trip coil, then how do design your...

    high Voltage conduit tagging?

    We have a discussion on how to tag high voltage conduit. We are doing a new installation of conduit for 4160 volts. We are putting several manholes and one of our engineers, who is doing the design, is assigning conduit tags from manhole to manhole and all the conduit tags are different for one...

    Tachometers and 4-20 mA signals

    I am trying to get a speed feedback from a 1 HP AC motor using a simple tachometer. I have look around but the only one I found is one that Dart Controls sells. The device is very simple. It attaches to the end of the motor and give pulses. (the model number is PU-2E for a single pulse per...

    ground resistancve for a valve control house

    One my engineers design a valve control house. This buildign has three rooms: the lectrical room the generator room and the valve control room. The electrical service is at 2400 volt, 3 phase, 3 wire wih a 45 kVA transformer and we install a pad monted transfromer inside the electrical room to...
