  Introduction to Electrical Instrumentation Electrical instrumentation is a branch of electrical engineering that deals with the measurement of process variables like pressure, temperature, flow, etc within industrial facilities and also the management of equipment for automated control. The work is usually done by the Instrumentation engineers who measure process variables (such as temperature, pressure, and volume) within an industrial plant by using various measuring equipment to control them. Areas which we can apply instrumentation and automation Electrical Instrumentation workers are employed in the following areas: Installation of electrical equipment and wiring systems Maintenance of motors and motor control systems Installation of measurement and control equipment in pharmaceutical and other industries Maintenance of the instrumentation equipment in these industries Sales of instrumentation equipment. An instrumentation system would be used for monitoring and controlling ...

  Despite the federal government’s inflexibility and political opposition to renewables, you cannot stop the momentum. Solar is now mainstream. It has caused a shake-up among regulators, generators, and policymakers.   Solar homeowners are fundamentally and irreversibly transforming the energy market. There are financial and environmental benefits of rooftop PV and the increasing appeal of battery storage, along with ever-smarter monitoring systems. The use of smart meters to meter net feed-in tariffs (as distinct from gross) has become popular. The decision to install PV these days is a no brainer. According to the Clean Energy Regulator (CER):   Rooftop solar is small but mighty; it’s more than double that of large-scale capacity, and by the end of 2020, more than $4 billion worth of households’ and businesses’ capital had flowed into rooftop solar generation alone, that’s not even counting battery storage.    In 2021 380,000 rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) in...

  Over the last ten years, solar energy systems in Australia have become more popular as the cost of renewable energy has dropped significantly. According to several reports, in 2020-21, Australia generated around 10% of its electricity from solar PV, which is the fastest-growing power source.     What are Stand Alone Power Systems?     Stand Alone Power Systems (SPS) generate electricity to charge batteries in the daytime. This electricity can then be used during the night when the sun is not available for power. SPS is a form of sustainable energy that utilises rechargeable batteries as a power storage system.    The Photovoltaic (PV) Solar based SPS system can be installed on a roof but can be used on vehicles, boats, tents, and wherever there is a need for remote power.     SPS works well in remote rural areas, especially when other power sources are inaccessible or unavailable to power lights, appliances, etc. As a result, installing a single stand-alone PV...

  Over the past several years, the solar industry has experienced significant growth as the growing demand for renewable energy has led to an increased demand for solar panels.     What is Solar Grid Connect PV System?    A grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system is one in which the solar modules are linked to the grid and can generate electricity. A solar PV system is one of the world’s fastest-growing energy sources, potentially producing around 50 GW by 2030.    Want to make a career as a renewable energy technician?    As the field of renewable energy technology continues to evolve, the need for technicians, who specialise in designing, installing and maintaining solar panels, is higher than ever. This has led to a demand for workers training in solar panel installation and repair, which has created a significant opportunity for those looking to enter the solar industry.    As a technician, you get to work on the latest technolo...

  From generating electricity to producing food, many of the most critical industrial processes today are performed by automated machinery. Our ability to innovate and produce has been boosted by automation technology. However, our current level of automation is only possible with the invention of the programmable logic controller (PLC). What is a Programmable Logic Controller? A programmable logic controller is a small computer with inputs for data and outputs for sending and receiving commands. A PLC’s primary duty is to regulate a system’s operations using the underlying logic that has been programmed into it. PLCs are used by businesses all over the world to automate their most crucial procedures. A PLC takes in inputs from automated data capture points or human input points such as switches or buttons. Based on its programming, the PLC decides whether to change the output. The outputs of a PLC can manage a wide range of machinery, including motors, solenoid valves, lighting, s...
