Industrial VS Commercial VS Residential Electrical Installation

Hey, in this article we are going to see the comparison between Industrial, Commercial, and Residential Electrical installation. We will make compare with respect to types, procedure, cost, safety, equipment, and many other essential factors. First of all, let's know what is electrical installation. Electrical installation is a procedure to install electrical circuits, wirings, equipment, and machines. The electrical installation can be divided into three major parts - 1. Installing of electrical equipment or device or machine 2. Make electrical connection or wiring for them 3. Provide them proper voltage and power to operate them. These different types of electrical installation required different types of electricians and management. For example, commercial electrical installation requires commercial electricians, industrial electrical installation requires industrial electricians, and residential electrical installation requires residential electricians. We already published an ...

Difference between Industrial, Commercial, and Residential Electrician

What is an Industrial Electrician?

An industrial electrician is a person who works within a particular industry for its electrical operation, installation, maintenance, repairing, etc. An industrial electrician is different from a residential or commercial. Their work is also different. Industrial electrician mainly works within a boundary and they have to report to their respected engineer or manager in that particular industry.

Difference between Industrial, Commercial, and Residential Electrician

Key Responsibilities of Industrial Electrician

  1. Strictly follow the electrical safety measures and guidelines as it is related to the overall industry.
  2. Read and interpreter electrical drawings, and wiring diagrams and execute them in practice.
  3. Preventive and breakdown maintenance of plant machinery, and devices.
  4. Daily routine inspection, check-up, and routine maintenance of plant machinery.
  5. Work for industrial new projects contributes to new planning and execution.

Industrial electricians are more depth knowledge of electrical machine maintenance. They did not travel more to different places as the commercial or residential electricians. Industrial electricians have to work very hard and busy in case the of production and manufacturing companies. Also, they mostly have to do shift-wise work

What is a Commercial Electrician?

A commercial electrician is a skilled and licensed person to work in commercial buildings such as shopping malls, large office buildings, restaurants, hotels, etc. They did not work in residential buildings. But the work of a commercial electrician is very similar to a residential electrician such as installation, maintenance, etc. The commercial electrician is a better carrier path than a residential electrician. Also, they earn more money than residential electricians and they have to follow more safety and regulations.

Key Responsibilities of Commercial Electrician

  1. Installation of electrical wiring, machine, and devices, in commercial buildings.
  2. Maintaining electrical systems, and circuits.
  3. Inspect electrical fault errors.
  4. Reading and interpreting electrical drawings, wiring diagrams, circuit diagrams, etc.
  5. Handling electricians team and coordinating, providing field knowledge.
  6. Repairing and maintenance of existing circuits, hardware,  networking-related works, etc.

What is a Residential Electrician?

A residential electrician is a skilled person to does electrical work and is licensed for the allowance in residential buildings such as domestic houses, family houses, and small offices for electrical installation, Wiring, inspection, maintenance, and Repairing.

Key Responsibilities of Residential Electrician

  1. Maintaining Electrical Systems in Residential Building, Homes, Offices
  2. Electrical Installation and House Wiring
  3. Reading or interpreting electrical drawings.
  4. Repairing, finding out defective components, and replacing components.
  5. Diagnosing errors and problems in electrical circuit systems and taking corrective action.
  6. Team handling, providing training for field knowledge.

Residential electricians generally work with low voltage only, in very rear cases they work with medium voltage. They are working with construction companies or contracting companies and they have to visit the field every day for their work. Residential electricians are maybe self-employed also. They have been licensed to work for installation in the new buildings or repairing or maintenance in existing residential buildings.

74HC165 Shift Register and your Arduino UNO

Today in this tutorial I'll explain to you how to control the 74HC165 parallel in serial out(PISO) shift register using your ARDUINO board. Here we used 74HC165 for increasing numbers of inputs of your ARDUINO board. Shift registers are often used for the purpose of saving pins on a microcontroller. Every microcontroller has a limited number of pins for general inputs and outputs (GPIO). Sometimes we have required more inputs and our controller does not provide such inputs at that time parallel in serial out(PISO) shift register is used to increase inputs. An 8-bit shift register needs 4 lines of a microcontroller. One pin to clock for data transfer, one for clock enable, one for shifting/loading/latching the bits, and one for serial data transfer. Here we used only 3 pins of microcontrollers. One pin for loading the bits, one pin to clock for data transfer, one pin to serial data transfer. In 74HC165 Clock enable pin is active low so we connect it to the ground. Two 74HC165 can be...

What is a Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) | Positive Temperature Coefficient Thermistor

PTC is an initial for Positive Temperature Coefficient PTC thermistors are resistors with a positive temperature coefficient, meaning their resistance rises as the temperature rises. PTC thermistors are classified into two types depending on the materials used, the structure of the device, and the production method. Solicitors are the earliest type of PTC thermistors, and they employ silicon as the semiconducting material. Because of their linear feature, they are employed as PTC temperature sensors.  The switching type PTC thermistor is the second category. The resistance-temperature curve of a switching type PTC thermistor is very nonlinear. When a switching type PTC thermistor is heated, the resistance initially decreases until a critical temperature is achieved. As the temperature rises above the critical point, the resistance rises substantially. This kind of PTC thermistor is commonly utilized in PTC heaters, sensors, and other applications. This second group includes polyme...

Interfacing Push button switch with AT89S52 Microcontroller.

This tutorial is for beginners in the field of micro-controller. The purpose of this tutorial is to use of push-button switch with the micro-controller. It will be useful whenever a decision is to be made according to the press of a switch. Input/output devices are very critical components of an embedded system. The first input device we will study is the switch. It allows the human to input binary information into the microcontroller. Typically we define the Two-state, logic as true when the switch is pressed. logic false, when the switch is not pressed. A single pole single throw (SPST) switch has two connections. The switches are shown as open circuits in Figure 1. which is a normally open switch (NO), the resistance between the connections is infinite (over 1000 MΩ) if the switch is not pressed and zero (under 0.1 Ω) if the switch is pressed.  A switch has a two-state open state and a closed state. And the state of the switch is monitored by the microcontroller at a digital inp...
