contains three 60-watt lamps. The light fixture presently installed over the mirror contains four 60-watt lamps. The homeowner asked whether the present light fixture over the mirror can be replaced by the lighted mirror. Assuming all loads are continuous, can the present circuit supply the power needed to operate all the loads without overloading the circuit?
Protection System
A system that protects electrical systems from faults by isolating the problematic part from the remainder of the system, preventing power from being cut from healthy elements, improving system dependability and efficiency is the protection system. Protection devices are the equipment that are utilized to implement the protection system.
Predictive Maintenance System
Predictive maintenance technologies are designed to assist in determining the state of in-service equipment so that maintenance can be scheduled. Predictive maintenance is the application of information; proactive maintenance approaches examine the condition of equipment and anticipate when it should maintain. The purpose of predictive maintenance is to forecast when equipment will fail (depending on a variety of parameters), then prevent the failure through routine and corrective maintenance.Condition monitoring is the continual monitoring of machines during process conditions to maintain optimal machine use, which is necessary for predictive maintenance. There are three types of condition monitoring: online, periodic, and remote. Finally, remote condition monitoring allows the equipment observed from a small place and data supplied for analysis.
Preventive Maintenance System
To maintain the equipment and materials on a regular basis in order to maintain those running conditions and reduce unnecessary shutdowns due to unexpected equipment failure is called Preventive Maintenance (PM).
A homeowner has asked to install a lighted mirror in a bathroom. The mirror contains eight 40-watt lamps. The bathroom circuit is connected to a single 120 Volts, 20 Ampere circuit breaker. At present, the circuit supplies power to an electric wall heater rated at 1000 Watts, a ceiling fan with a light kit, and a light fixture over the mirror. The fan motor has a full-load current draw of 3.2 Amperes and the light kit contains three 60 Watt lamps. The light fixture presently installed over the mirror contains four 60 Watt lamps.
We have been asked whether the present light fixture over the mirror can be replaced by the lighted mirror or not. It can be assumed that all loads are continuous, can the present circuit supply the power needed to operate all the loads without overloading the circuit.
