Voltage is the electric potential difference between two points, driving current flow in a circuit.
Voltage is measured in volts (V).
It represents the energy per unit charge available to move electrons.
Example: A standard household outlet in the US provides 120V.
Higher voltage can lead to greater current flow, given a constant resistance (Ohm's Law).
Voltage can be AC (alternating current) or DC (direct current).
Cable laying involves the installation of electrical cables for power distribution, communication, or data transmission.
Cable laying can be done underground, overhead, or underwater depending on the application.
Proper planning is essential to avoid damage to existing infrastructure.
Examples include laying power cables for substations or communication cables for internet services.
Techniques include trenching, directiona...

Panel installation involves setting up electrical panels for power distribution and control in various applications.
Identify the location for panel installation, ensuring accessibility and compliance with local codes.
Mount the panel securely to a wall or structure, using appropriate fasteners.
Connect incoming power supply lines to the panel's main bus bars.
Install circuit breakers or fuses in designated slots for circu...
Panel board capacity refers to the maximum electrical load it can handle safely and efficiently.
Common capacities range from 100A to 4000A, depending on application.
Residential panel boards typically have capacities of 100A or 200A.
Commercial buildings may use panel boards rated from 400A to 1200A.
Industrial applications can require panel boards with capacities exceeding 4000A.
Example: A 200A panel board can support mu...
Various cable types are used in electrical engineering, including power, control, and communication cables, each serving specific purposes.
Power cables: Used for transmitting electrical power, e.g., XLPE cables for high voltage.
Control cables: Used for control circuits, e.g., multi-core cables for automation systems.
Communication cables: Used for data transmission, e.g., Ethernet cables for networking.
Instrumentation c...

I applied via Naukri.com and was interviewed before Jul 2020. There was 1 interview round.
Name mangling is a technique used by compilers to give unique names to functions and variables to avoid naming conflicts.
Name mangling is used in C++ to support function overloading.
It is also used in Python to avoid naming conflicts in modules.
Name mangling can make it difficult to access variables and functions from outside the class in which they are defined.
In C++, name mangling can be seen by using the 'nm' comman
I applied via Naukri.com and was interviewed in Aug 2020. There were 3 interview rounds.
Abstract Factory is a creational design pattern that provides an interface for creating families of related objects.
Abstract Factory is used when we need to create families of related objects without specifying their concrete classes.
It provides an interface for creating objects of related classes without specifying their concrete classes.
It encapsulates a group of factories that have a common theme.
It promotes loose c...
Range based map iteration can be done using a for-each loop or iterators.
Use a for-each loop to iterate over the map elements.
Alternatively, use iterators to traverse the map.
The range-based for loop is preferred for its simplicity and readability.
Example: for(auto const& [key, value] : myMap) { //do something with key and value }
Detached threads are independent threads that run separately from the main thread. Joined threads are threads that wait for the main thread to finish.
Detached threads are created using pthread_detach() function
Joined threads are created using pthread_join() function
Detached threads do not need to be explicitly terminated
Joined threads must be explicitly terminated using pthread_exit() or return statement
Detached thread...
Static code analysis tools are software programs that analyze source code to find potential issues and improve code quality.
Static code analysis tools scan code without executing it
They can detect issues such as security vulnerabilities, coding errors, and performance problems
Examples of static code analysis tools include SonarQube, ESLint, and Checkstyle
Command to list currently running threads in linux
Use the 'ps' command with the 'H' option to display threads in a hierarchy
Use the 'top' command to display threads in real-time
Use the 'htop' command for an interactive display of threads
No, arithmetic operations cannot be performed on unique pointers.
Unique pointers are used to manage the lifetime of dynamically allocated objects.
They cannot be copied or assigned, only moved.
Arithmetic operations are not defined for pointers, including unique pointers.
Designing Facebook is a complex task involving various components and technologies.
Identify the core features of Facebook such as user profiles, news feed, messaging, and groups.
Choose appropriate technologies for each component such as PHP for backend, React for frontend, and MySQL for database.
Ensure scalability and performance by implementing caching, load balancing, and database sharding.
Implement security measures...

AD DNS DHCP are Microsoft technologies used for network management and authentication.
Active Directory (AD) is a directory service used for authentication and authorization of users and computers in a network.
Domain Name System (DNS) is used for name resolution of network resources.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is used for automatic IP address assignment to network devices.
AD, DNS, and DHCP are often used ...
IaaS, SaaS, and PaaS are cloud computing models that provide different levels of infrastructure, software, and platform services.
IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) provides virtualized computing resources over the internet, such as servers, storage, and networking.
SaaS (Software as a Service) delivers software applications over the internet, eliminating the need for local installation and maintenance.
PaaS (Platform as ...
