Equipotential bonding wire of high-voltage distribution box

Equipotential bonding wire of high-voltage distribution box

Equipotential bonding cables are required between two control cabinets with a minimum conductor cross-section of 16 mm². Connect the equipotential bonding conductors to the ground / protective conductor over a. This guide explains the theoretical principles and practical implementation of measures for equipotential bonding and lightning protection of PV systems in general – and of S:FLEX mounting systems in particular – based on the relevant technical regulations. This article from the experts at NICEIC discusses the purpose of carrying out protective equipotential bonding in commercial and/or industrial type properties, and how to verify the electrical continuity of protective bonding conductors in such a location. When it comes to the friction-free flow of power, energy and data, engineers and tradespeople worldwide rely on the comprehensive range from OBO. [pdf]

Connecting the optical power meter to the fiber optic transceiver

Connecting the optical power meter to the fiber optic transceiver

Power meter measurement in five steps: 1) Clean the meter port and the patch cord. 4) Connect the fiber under test. 5) Read the value, and compare. This guide walks through the full procedure -- from cleaning the connector to interpreting the result -- so your measurements are trustworthy on the first try. 3). An optical power meter measures the strength of light traveling through a fiber optic cable, giving you a reading in dBm (decibels relative to one milliwatt). In this guide covers the basics so you can measure optical power. Accurately testing an optical Transceiver means proving two things: that the module is emitting the right power at the right wavelength, and that the link it's attached to delivers that signal without unexpected loss or reflections. In practice you'll use two complementary tools — an optical power. [pdf]

How to strip a power metal optical cable

How to strip a power metal optical cable

In this guide, we'll show you the tools and how to correctly strip the insulation from the wires without damaging the internal conductors. Whether you need to use a cable knife, cable stripper or special stripping pliers will depend on the cable type. The procedure is the same for almost all cables: cut and strip the sheath, fit the core with a ferrule or connect it to the circuit using a clamp - done! Provided you have the right tools, stripping and stripping is not rocket science and even inexperienced craftsmen can do it in no time at all. Our new line of WetLink Penetrators (WLP) make it easier than ever to install a cable penetrator on your cables. [pdf]
