Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

Three main electrical test instruments used in trouble shooting.

Explanation of Solution

An industrial electrician's main job is to troubleshoot or restore a control circuit when it fails. First, it is necessary to determine which component is at fault in order to repair or remove a faulty component. Three main instruments used to troubleshoot a circuit are the voltmeter, ohmmeter, and ammeter. They can measure several different electrical quantities, so this meters are called multimeters.

Thus Voltmeter, Ohmmeter, Ammeter are the main electrical test instruments used in trouble shooting.

Finite Element Analysis
an experimental research station is constructed on a concrete slab floor. The heat loss from the floor slab is significant, given the cold environment, and is measured to be 5 kW. The edges of the floor slab are insulated with a 60 mm thickness of cellular glass insulation. The width of this insulation at the floor slab is 0.9 m. To avoid excessive fuel consumption, the station air temperature is maintained at a slightly cool temperature of 18ºC. The station is constructed in a square shape, to keep the surface area to volume ratio low; the horizontal dimensions of the floor of the station are 20 m by 20 m. The number of occupants in the research station varies between 5 and 20, depending on the research workload.a) Determine the design outdoor temperature that was used in designing the research station.b) If the floor dimensions of the station are changed to 15 m by 25 m, would the design outdoor temperature that was used in designing the research station from part (a) change? If so,…
