ELECTRICAL DRIVES

An electrical drive is defined as a form of machine equipment designed to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and provide electrical control of the processes. The system employed for motion control is called an electrical drive. Very low power drives are generally fed from single-phase sources.

POWER SYSTEM PROTECTION

Power system protection is a branch of electrical power engineering that deals with the protection of electrical power systems from faults through the disconnection of faulted parts from the rest of the electrical network. ... The devices that are used to protect the power systems from faults are called protection devices.

Microprocessors and Microcontrollers

A typical microprocessor consists of arithmetic and logic unit (ALU) in association with control unit to process the instruction execution. ... In store-program concept, programs or instructions Page 2 Microprocessor and Microcontrollers are sequentially stored in the memory locations that are to be executed.
