Fuses – The Weakest Link is Often Your Strongest Link
If you work with electrical processes or electronics, fuses are
obviously a part of your life. While circuit breakers are used for many
applications, the good old fusible link in its various forms and
iterations is still a necessary part of many circuits.
Fuses come
in different shapes, sizes, and functions. When choosing a fuse for a
circuit, choose carefully. The characteristics vary widely, and you need
to use the one for the application you're designing.

Shedding Some Daylight on Occupancy and Vacancy Sensors
Sensor-based lighting control is becoming a must in many commercial and institutional settings. The drivers for this trend include ever-tightening energy standards and increasing scrutiny of energy bills by building owners and managers. How successful those sensors are in actually cutting lighting costs, however, depends on lighting designers and electrical contractors who understand the basics of how sensors work, and which models are best for each application.

Picking the Right Occupancy Sensor for Any Application
Most of us who work in commercial or institutional spaces rarely think
about lighting, and that’s a problem for any facility’s energy bills.
Occupancy/vacancy sensors can help by becoming a lighting system’s
brains – these devices think about lighting, so we don’t have to.
Selecting the right kind of sensor for each location is important,
though, because not every sensor “sees” in the same way.

Conduit Comparisons… and a Surprising Fact
There are several types of conduit. Of course, you know that. But in this article, we're only going to discuss metallic conduits. PVC conduit may be a topic for another day. Because of their somewhat fragile composition — particularly in commercial and industrial settings — they don't fit in with this article.
Of course, the main two families of conduit, if conduits had families, are steel and aluminum.
