BASIC CONCEPT OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING SYSTEM

Bryan M. Legaspi
Bsee – V

Eng’r. Dennis M. Pascua
Instructor

Electrical system design is the design of electrical systems. This can be as simple as a flashlight connected through two wires to a light bulb or as involved as the space shuttle. Electrical systems are groups of electrical components connected to carry out some operation. Often the systems are combined with other systems. They might be subsystems of larger systems and have subsystems of their own. For example a subway rapid electrical system is composed of the wayside electrical power supply, wayside control system, and the electrical systems of each transit car. Each transit car’s electrical system is a subsystem of the subway system. Inside of each transit car there are also subsystems, such as the car climate control system.

Electrical system - equipment in a motor vehicle that provides electricity to start the engine and ignite the fuel and operate the lights and windshield wiper and heater and air conditioner and radio
Alternator - an old term for an electric generator that produces alternating current (especially in automobiles)
Automobile battery, car battery - a lead-acid storage battery in a motor vehicle; usually a 12-volt battery of six cells; the heart of the car's electrical system
Equipment - an instrumentality needed for an undertaking or to perform a service
Headlamp, headlight - a powerful light with reflector; attached to the front of an automobile or locomotive
Ignition system, ignition - the mechanism that ignites the fuel in an internal-combustion engine
Automotive vehicle, motor vehicle - a self-propelled wheeled vehicle that does not run on rails
Starter, starter motor, starting motor - an electric motor for starting an engine
Rear lamp, rear light, tail lamp, taillight - lamp (usually red) mounted at the rear of a motor vehicle
Voltage

    Headlights and street lights are powered by the lightbulb, and without these safety implementations, drivers on the road would not be able to see obscure items blocking their path. The quantity of automobile accidents would noticeably increase if the lightbulb was not guiding the way with its comforting glow. For example, my family was driving home from New York after a two week vacation. We were traveling late into the night, and we were located deep in the heart of a forest as misleading as a maze! The moonless night cloaked all of the dangers of the road, so we had no time to swerve when a fallen limb blocked our path.…

    Since the invention of T Model Cars by Henry Ford in 1908, humans are increasingly regards cars as one of the most important needs in modern life. Oxford Dictionaries noted the definition of cars as “a road vehicle, typically with four wheels, powered by an internal-combustion engine and able to carry a small number of people”. The Wikipedia free translation said that “An automobile, auto car, motor car or car is a wheeled motor vehicle used for transporting passengers, which also carries its own engine or motor. Most definitions of the term specify that automobiles are designed to run primarily on roads, to have seating for one to eight people, to typically have four wheels, and to be constructed principally for the transport of people rather than goods”.

    An automobile is a wheeled motor vehicle used for transporting passengers, which also carries its own engine or motor [1]. Many of the denominations for automobiles include motor car, auto car, or car. Numerous dictionaries and sources that define the word automobile, state that they run on an internal-combustion engine. While this is true, not all automobiles run on gasoline or petroleum. The electric car and steam engines have shown that many alternatives exist to power vehicles. Dictionaries also affirm that the purpose of an automobile is to transport passengers. Advancements in technology are rapidly altering this.…

    A type of relay that can handle the high power required to directly control an electric motor or other loads is called a contactor. Solid-state relays control power circuits with no moving parts, instead using a semiconductor device to perform switching. Relays with calibrated operating characteristics and sometimes multiple operating coils are used to protect electrical circuits from overload or faults; in modern electric power systems these functions are performed by digital instruments still called "protective relays".…
