Sustainable Data Management

Data centers account network data like social network profiles and uploaded media. The U.S. alone stores a third of the world’s data—nearly 900 exabytes (900 billion gigabytes)—in data centers all over the country. With eight Internet users coming online every second, six of them in North America, data centers have to expand constantly to make room.

However, expansions take their toll on the local power grid. According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, data centers consumed a total of 91 billion kWh, enough to power New York’s homes twice over, in 2013. Most of the consumption stems from HVAC systems used to keep the databanks cool. After all, heat is the enemy of sensitive electronics. Continue reading →

Different Types of Transducers

An inquisitive child would ask a lot about what he sees around the house. While most of those questions may seem silly to adults, others simply make sense, and even make adults wonder for themselves. For instance, questions like “How does a microphone make one’s voice louder than normal?” or “Why is a flat iron hot?” can leave grownups scratching their heads. Continue reading →

Current Transformers vs. Electrical Surges

You’ve probably often heard that you need to unplug your home appliances when not in use to protect them from electrical surges. This advice, if put into practice, can protect your investments. Electrical surges, after all, may not only damage your appliances but also cause fires. Here are some facts you need to know about this phenomenon to avoid its devastating effects. Continue reading →

Integrating Current Sensors into Existing Systems

Different current sensors, when integrated into a measurement system, produce different outputs. As such, extreme caution must be taken when doing so, because installing the wrong sensor to your equipment or attaching a sensor the wrong way can lead to irreparable damage, not only to the sensor, but to the whole system as well. Likewise, using the incorrect sensor presents a huge safety risk to personnel. Continue reading →

Innovative DC Current Sensor System Promotes Responsible Energy Use


Global energy demand will continue to increase due to population growth. In a recent Hydrocarbon Engineering report, Emma McAleavey writes that even with energy efficiency measures in place, residential, commercial, and industrial demand for energy will grow between 2010 and 2040.

Fortunately, North America and Europe will see the lowest increase in demand. Building code updates, energy efficiency mandates, and investment in alternative sources of energy are able to keep the rate of increase down to 20 percent. McAleavey reports, though, that it could’ve been 50 percent—at par with Asia, a budding mega-economy.

Flexible Current Transformers Mitigate the Effects of Power Surges


The first step in mitigating power surges is to recognize that they are sometimes inevitable and thereby spell the need to install a flexible current transformer. Such a device is commonly used to measure surge currents. Aside from utility works, power surges can also be caused by lightning or internal circuitry (e.g. activating high-powered systems).

The next step is to identify the cause. If the facility is experiencing power surges on a clear day, lightning is unlikely to be the culprit. Experts believe most power surges stem from within a facility, such as a faulty wire or tripped circuit breaker somewhere. You can use the readings on the current transformer to determine fluctuations in a conductor’s current.
