How to connect LED Neon Flex

图片
LED Neon Flex lighting   is naturally simple to install and the design allows the tube to be easily cut to size, extended and bent into the correct shape. Here are the steps you need to follow to create the ideal LED lighting fixture. Step 1: Cut the LED Neon Flex tube The LED light strip features a variety of cutting marks to its edges so all you have to do is make an even cut at the point of connection using a sharp cutting blade. It’s important to use a sharp blade as this will ensure a straight cut and you will also avoid pulling any internal wires. If any wires inside the strup are pulled or stretched, the light may be damaged. Step 2: Attach connectors to LED Neon Flex strip The female end of the connector or jumper section should be heated using a heat gun until the plastic section is slightly malleable. Next, you need to position this section over the end of the lighting strip, so that the female pin openings correctly align with the ends of the male power pin. For a more w...

2022 sports watch recommendations

图片
    As a runner, it is natural to prepare sports equipment. The sports watch, as a necessary equipment for runners nowadays, can play a very good role in assisting exercise by monitoring various sports data. There are many brands of sports watches on the market, with different prices and functions. At that time, it was really confusing to start a sports watch. After researching for a long time and considering various factors, I finally chose the one I liked. As a wearable device, a sports watch can not only provide the time display, countdown and other functions of ordinary watches, but also help us understand various physiological data of our sports, allocate physical energy reasonably, and help us achieve the best sports state. . Now sports watches on the market are becoming more and more diverse in terms of styles, functions, etc. In addition to sports and fitness, they can also better help us understand our physical condition in daily life. Shopping Considerations In addit...

Everything You Need to Know about Deep Cycle Battery

图片
Before we dive into   what is a deep cycle battery , it is first important to understand a few battery basics of what a cycle is, what depth of discharge means, and what it really means to deep discharge a battery. One full cycle is considered a full discharge and recharge of a battery. What is meant by a full discharge? Discharge is measured by the capacity removed from the battery – the depth of the discharge (DoD) is used to indicate how much of the battery capacity has been used during a single discharge. A full discharge is 100% DoD. What is a Deep Cycle Battery? This answer may seem obvious, but a deep cycle battery is a battery that has been designed to continuously handle deep discharges of 80-100% DoD. Does this mean high-rate batteries can’t be used for a deep discharge? Yes and no. One or two deep cycles will not hurt the battery (if maximum discharge and charge rates are strictly adhered to), but this is where the design of the battery matters because a high-rate batter...

Advantages and disadvantages of Vacuum Circuit Breaker

图片
A circuit breaker  is a switching device that can be operated manually or automatically for controlling and protecting the electrical power system. Vacuum Circuit Breakers use vacuum as the interrupting medium due to its high dielectric and diffusive properties. Read this new blog in Linquip to know more about this type of circuit breaker and Its applications. What is Vacuum Circuit Breakers? Vacuum circuit breakers  are compactly designed for safe operation, high reliability, and easy maintenance, and find a use for various types of high voltage circuits. They interrupt an electric circuit to prevent unwarranted current, caused by a short-circuit, typically resulting from an overload. There are mainly five types of circuit breakers, generally used as protective equipment of high voltage system: Oil Circuit breaker (OCB) Minimum Oil Circuit breaker (MOCB) Vacuum Circuit Breaker (VCB) SF6 Circuit Breaker Air Circuit Breaker (ACB) Vacuum Circuit Bre...

Surge Arrester vs Lightning Arrester: Which One to Choose

图片
    Different terms used for  arresters  are sometimes confusing even professional engineers and electricians use them interchangeably. Now let’s discuss all these arresters in details.   Table of Contents   What is a Surge Arrester? What is a Lightning Arrester? Main Differences between Surge Arrester and Lightning Arrester Should You Use Surge Arresters or Lightning Arresters?   Surge Arrester   1. The  surge arrester  will be installed nearer to the equipment to be protected and the transmission tower line enter in to the substation point. 2. It protects against high voltage transient (example: lightning strike on the transmission conductor) typically, it is indirect protection of lightning strikes. 3. It should be installed each phase of the circuit. i.e if you have 2 parallel switch yard then you should install 6 number of surge arrester (first run 3 phase and second run 3 phase) . Lightning arresters   1. The lighting arrester...

Guide before choosing SLM for metal 3D printing

图片
  What is selective laser melting in 3D printing? Selective laser melting (SLM) is a special 3D printing technique that uses a high power density laser to fully melt and fuse metal powders to produce near full density (up to 99.9% relative density) near net shape parts. Processing Craft The technology SLM is short for selective laser melting, which the rapid prototyping technology for the metal powder. SLM can directly form the metal parts which is close to fully dense, and needn’t binders. Hence, this technology is also called  direct metal laser sintering , or  DMLS  for short. The accuracy and mechanical properties of prototypes which made by SLM is better than SLS, so it’s becoming more and more popular in 3D printing. How the SLM process work? SLM technology need make the metal powder melted completely, and form the metal parts directly, hence the high-power laser is required. Before the high-power laser beam start scanning, the horizontal powder roller need spr...
