FAQ

I have an item that is magnetic and it was accidentally heated. That took away a lot of the strength how can I restrengthen my magnet?

How can I get a claim from the power company for damaged electrical equipment caused by a power surge?
I have actually heard of that working in my home town, but it would vary with areas and power companies. Call your power company and ask. Be prepared to submit your damaged equipment and sales receipts.
I have a full-time job but would like to dabble in residential electrical work for friends and family. What would I need to do? I would like some kind of formal license and training but don't want to go back to school or commit to any long-term programs. This is in Massachusetts.
You would need a license to do work for others. You MAY find internet classes but still need to take a State test. Then there is the insurance angle. Doing electrical work for others could cost you a whole lot if there is a problem. Friends and relation are the first to sue when there are problems.
every electrical equipment is rated in VA or KW(motor) why transmission line rated in Volts though it carry power.
Because voltage is the only thing that remains fairly constant. Even though industry and residential pull off that transmission line, the voltage is and Hertz is maintained for the sake of equipment that depends on a constant voltage. The current in the line fluctuates highly , depending on how many people are drawing on it at any instant
I m trying to repair some vintage audio equipment, and I notice these tissue like strips that hold the cables together, without being rolled on. What are those properly called, and do they come in rolls?
Old-style electrical tape was impregnated cloth and not plastic as it is now. There is some still around, it comes in rolls.
i need it pretty soon for my hw and if you dont mind can you explain what the process is thanks and keep it simple
Input is the source or something acted upon. Like the thermostat in the ac or heater system would be the input - telling the rest of the circuit that the temp is too low, therefor turn on the heat (or turn off the ac).
I want to get into a field that involves fixing electrical equipment. I have always loved taking apart things like my Xbox/Playstation/cell phone so I could fixing them when they broke and I would like to further this into a career. What type of field should I study in order to pursue this goal? I am a student at the University of Arizona, so if you know of any programs there that would help a lot.
None, depending on how or where you work. If you work for yourself you don't need any degree at all. You need to be an electronics service engineer. You have to be able to do the job. That's more important than having a piece of paper that says you got good grades and showed up or class. (I would argue this is true for most fields) You can get a degree in electronics engineering at many schools. It would be very helpful to find work at a company specializing in service of these things. Nobody repairs cell phones, it just isn't worth doing.
I am about to finish my BS in Electrical Engineering and was considering getting a MS in EE but considering how the economoy is and the fact that the Bureau of Labor Statistics say it should grow slower than average. This being said what do you guys think is the most prudent thing to do in my case. Go for an MS Engineering Degree or start out with another degree maybe in healthcare.
As per research, the job growth of electrical engineers will largely occur in engineering firms, government agencies, industrial sectors, and more. These engineers will also experience tremendous job growth in computer systems design, because these industries are focusing on manufacturing portable computing device. The rapid pace of technological invention will drive huge demand for electrical engineers in the research sector as well. So, those who're thinking of pursuing electrical and electronic engineering will experience favourable employment opportunities in the years to come.
