River Engineering Interview Questions and Answers

Electrical loads can be classified into different types based on their characteristics and usage.

• Resistive loads: consume constant power and have a linear relationship between voltage and current (e.g. incandescent bulbs)

• Inductive loads: consume power in pulses and have a lagging power factor (e.g. motors, transformers)

• Capacitive loads: consume power in pulses and have a leading power factor (e.g. capacitors)

• Non-linear...read more

Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points.

• Ohm's law is represented by the equation I = V/R, where I is the current, V is the voltage, and R is the resistance.

• It applies to conductors that are ohmic, meaning they have a constant resistance regardless of the voltage or current.

• Ohm's law is used in electrical engineering to calcul...read more
