Safe Handling of Live Wires and Circuits
⚡ Safe Handling of Live Wires and Circuits
🔎 Hazards of Improper Handling
Electrical Shock – direct contact with live wires.
Fire Risk – overloaded/damaged wires can overheat.
Trip Hazards – loose or messy cables cause accidents.
Equipment Damage – poor installation harms devices.
📝 Pre-Installation Safety
Site Inspection – check for water, panels, foot traffic.

Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) – Why It’s Important for Electricians
🔒 Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) – Why It Matters
⚡ What is Lockout/Tagout?
LOTO = Lock + Tag on equipment during repair, servicing, or maintenance.
Prevents unexpected startup or release of hazardous energy.
Required under OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.147.
Protects electricians, machine operators, laborers, and other workers.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in Electrical Work
🛡️ Types of PPE
Head Protection – Hard hats with electrical insulation.
Eye & Face Protection – Safety glasses, goggles, face shields (for sparks/arc flash).
Hearing Protection – Earplugs for noisy equipment.
Hand & Arm Protection – Insulated gloves, rubber lineman gloves, protective sleeves.
Foot & Leg Protection – Non-conductive safety shoes, dielectric overshoes.

Basic Electrical Safety Rules Every Electrician Must Follow
Keep equipment away from water – Maintain at least 5 feet distance and use GFCIs to prevent shocks and fire hazards.
Unplug safely – Always pull from the plug, not the cord, to avoid damage and electric shock.
Install & tidy cords – Ensure proper installation and keep cords neat and...
Resistor
A simple circuit with a single resistor connected to a voltage source (battery).
Charges move through the resistor from the positive terminal of the source to the negative.
The animation often shows little dots or markers representing electric charge or current flow.
From the resistor’s point of view
The resistor resists the flow...
Fourier series triangle wave circles
What a triangle wave is
A triangle wave is a periodic waveform that linearly ramps up then linearly ramps down (or vice versa), forming a triangular shape.
It has slope changes at the peaks (sharp corners), unlike sine waves which are smooth.
What Fourier series does here
Fourier series lets you express a...
Square Waveform
What is a square wave
A square wave is a periodic waveform that switches between two levels (for example +A and −A, or “on” and “off”) with instantaneous transitions.
It’s one of the basic waveforms in electronics, signal processing, music synthesis etc.
What is shown in the image
The waveform alternates between two...
Sinusoidal wave
A Sinusoidal wave in the context of Electrical or Electronics Engineering is used to represent a time-varying voltage or current whose average value in a cycle is zero. Mathematically, this waveform can be represented by the equation.
AC Voltage
Alternating Voltage (AC Voltage): Voltage that changes direction periodically, usually in a sinusoidal pattern.
A sine wave represents AC voltage and current.
Voltage and current rise from 0 → maximum → 0 → negative maximum → 0, repeatedly.
AC Inductive Circuit
As you can see, the current through the coil is 90° out of phase - and delayed. Why? The periodically alternating current flow creates a magnetic field in the coil that also alternates periodically. This alternating magnetic field in turn results in an induction voltage, which (according to...
Ultrasonic Sensors
An ultrasonic sensor is a device that measures distance or detects objects by sending out ultrasonic sound waves and measuring the time it takes for the echo to return. It’s commonly used for obstacle detection, level measurement, and proximity sensing.
Pressure Sensor
Pressure Sensors measure the force exerted by a fluid (liquid or gas) and convert it into an electrical signal.
Common types:
Strain Gauge Sensors – detect pressure via deformation of a material.
Piezoelectric Sensors – generate voltage when pressure is applied.
Capacitive Sensors – change capacitance with pressure changes.
Used in industrial automation, hydraulics,...
