Ask six electrical engineers how to correctly ground and shield a measurement system, and you’ll likely get 12 different answers. Sound farfetched? I used to think so, but after talking to engineers ...

Inadequate shielding and bad grounding are often blamed when measurements are inaccurate, especially in high-impedance applications. In fact, shielding and grounding problems are frequently ...

Normally when a spiral shield is used on a cable it is for one of three reasons, increased flexibility, ease of termination, or reduced manufacturing costs. Let's consider the differences between a ...

Although the 2005 Code-change cycle often included lively debate on the use of non-shielded cables at 4.16kV and 2.4kV, in the end, the majority of the members of Code-Making Panel 6 (CMP-6) voted to ...
