This book sets out to provide a basic grounding in the design of electrical services for buildings. It is intended for consultants and graduates in electrical and mechanical engineering who are about to specialize in building services after obtaining a broadly based,...
Assuming that the efficiency and other costs/factors (environmental, convenience) are held constant, this is how much it would cost to boil one litre of water in Kenya as of April 2021. Assuming that water’s room temperature before boiling is 250C and since the...
Currently submitting and obtaining approvals for buildings from the national and country governments does not require electrical and mechanical drawings from registered professional engineers. This loophole has, as anyone can imagine led to the inferior implementation...
(For those registering, you can download real sample IEK/EBK registration reports by clicking here ) To practice engineering in Kenya and for one to be recognized as an Engineer, it is necessary for them to register in both the Engineers Board of Kenya (EBK) and the...
Graduate Engineers in Kenya are required by law to register through the Engineers Board of Kenya (EBK) which is constituted under Section 3(1) of the Engineers Act 2011 Laws of Kenya. The Board is a successor to the Engineers Registration Board (ERB) established by...
There is a variety of different TV systems available on the market today. We mainly have Satellite TV, IPTV, Cable TV and Over the top (OTT) streaming. Which option is the best for your situation? One of the main requirements in every hospitality infrastructure (say...
Cable sizing is very key when it comes to electrical installations. Proper sizing helps avoid overloading or underloading of cables. Overloading cables may lead to damage to the cable and in some cases heating that may cause an electrical fire. Under loading is going...
Steinmetz is known for his fundamental contribution in three major fields of alternating current (AC) systems theory: hysteresis, steady-state analysis, and transients. His writing on the state of electrical engineering in 1908 seems to still reflect the current...
Whether you’re securing a home, retail store or other commercial business, you need dependability from your systems. Intelligent intrusion detection is a delicate balance between responding to real security breaches and ignoring costly false alarm triggers. The motion...
An elevator is a hoisting and lowering mechanism equipped with a car or platform that moves in guides in a substantially vertical direction and that transports passengers or goods, or both, between two or more floors of a building. A powered elevator employs energy...
