HOW ELECTRICAL FIRES START AND HOW TO PREVENT THEM Fire is often evaluated as a natural disaster in specifications and descriptions. Consequently, emphasis is usually placed on how to extinguish it and how to evacuate the scene quickly, rather than […]

A large portion of agricultural organizations in Türkiye obtain products through indoor farming activities, primarily greenhouse cultivation. One of the greatest risks in greenhouse farming is electrical fires. Plants grown in indoor areas are used as raw materials in many […]

WHAT IS A REGULATOR AND HOW DOES IT WORK? A Regulator is the general name for single-winding transformers, colloquially known as “boosters” in low-voltage systems, used to counteract instances where energy arrives continuously low or high within a range of […]

Everything on the internet has a physical counterpart. Data and the existence of objects rely on electrical circuits assembled with specific algorithms. Everything on computers and the internet is formed by the coming together of 0s and 1s through certain […]

WHAT IS A SURGE ARRESTER (PARAFUDR) AND WHAT ARE ITS TYPES? Surge Arrester (Parafudr) is the general name for products that ensure sudden overcurrents, which are inevitable on phases especially during lightning events, are short-circuited to the ground. The information […]

PROTECTION OF MACHINERY IN INDUSTRY Industrial production depends largely on the performance of machinery. To ensure that machines and systems organized for purposes such as production, packaging, and stacking continue to operate, electricity must be used efficiently. Indeed, even a […]

Why does a TV motherboard burn out? The television is an indispensable part of almost every home. Models with high resolution and image quality, such as LCDs, have become available at very affordable prices in recent years. However, it must […]

WHAT IS OVERVOLTAGE? Overvoltage is a condition where the potential difference between the two ends of a conductor rises far above the withstand capacity of electrical and electronic devices. Overvoltages generally occur in very short durations, such as microseconds, and […]

The discharge of electrical charges in clouds results in currents such as lightning and flashes. Contrary to popular belief, these are not different words for the same phenomenon, but electrical currents with distinct characteristics. A lightning flash (şimşek) is a […]

When we think of a holiday, the first things that come to mind are opportunities for self-reflection, rest, visiting relatives, and escaping from work and stressful environments. However, for some, these opportunities can turn into significant hardships and real ordeals—ranging […]

Current and voltage are the two fundamental elements of electricity. They are essential for electrical energy to operate any system and transform into other forms. They are the indispensable entities of our lives that everyone thinks they understand, yet almost […]

WHAT IS A SURGE ARRESTER (PARAFUDR)? A surge arrester (parafudr) is a protection element that discharges extremely high impulses, such as those caused by lightning, by short-circuiting the excessive current changes in the diagram to the ground. There are types […]

VOLTAGE REGULATOR A Voltage Regulator is the general name for products manufactured to prevent electrical energy from continuously arriving at levels that are too low or too high. Regulators do not function during instantaneous overvoltages or rapid fluctuations. They are […]

WHY DOES AN ELEVATOR CONTROL BOARD BURN OUT? The electrically operated vehicle that carries people and loads from one floor of a structure to another or to higher places is called an “Elevator.” As multi-story buildings have become our primary […]

OVERVOLTAGE AND THE TSUNAMI Overvoltage is the instantaneous rise in potential difference between the two ends of a conductor. It occurs in durations as short as microseconds or milliseconds, can be triggered by many internal and external factors, and is […]

WORKING PRINCIPLE OF SURGE ARRESTERS (PARAFUDR) Surge arresters are products manufactured to maintain insulating properties up to a predetermined voltage value and to become conductive above that value to discharge the overload from phase to ground. Surge arresters are produced […]

Energy Security in Outdoor Organizations Providing energy for outdoor organizations requires significant expenses. Sound and lighting systems used in events such as concerts, weddings, and meetings are more vulnerable than those used indoors. They are susceptible to wind and environmental […]

HOW TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL CONTACT FIRES? Electrical contact failure is among the most common causes of fires. Although it is often thought to occur only in old installations, it can also be seen in new and reinforced electrical systems due […]

REDUCING INSURANCE COSTS Security is the primary requirement for utilizing and converting electrical energy. From the simplest light bulbs to massive industrial facilities, all electrical systems contain internal components that provide safety. Likewise, any location with an electrical installation must […]

As is well known, simultaneous long-term power outages occurred in many parts of Türkiye. Following this, authorities issued consecutive warnings to citizens to turn off their main switches and to keep them in the “off” position for another 15 minutes […]
