Article Abstract:
Installers and specifiers of circuit protection products in the UK must be aware that compliance with the appropriate standards may be rendered invalid if the equipment is not installed on-site according to the manufacturer's instructions and guidance. A manufacturer's certification may become null and void if a consumer unit made by one manufacturer is fitted with mcbs and rccbs from others. Distributors and wholesalers also have a duty under the 'General Product Safety Regulations 1994' to take 'due care' to ensure that the products they supply are safe.

When metering means business
Article Abstract:
Once electricity has entered a factory or similar building, separate monitoring of the use of power in individual locations can lead to considerable cost savings. Low initial cost items such as lighting can account for up to 40% of the power consumption in an organisation and, if shown to be particularly heavy on demand, can be replaced at little expense to show a great return on the investment. Individual processes can have their power consumption measured and can then be compared against benchmarks to ascertain the efficiency obtained.

Metering Electric Power
Article Abstract:
A system built around a National Semiconductor 8-bit 8048 microprocessor allows for the remote reading of electric power company meters. Based on electrooptical communications, the system uses infrared radiation to communicate with the reader. It keeps track of the peak demand as well as total consumption of electricity.
