How To Calculate Air Conditioner Size For Your House?

Each home is unique, and finding the correct air conditioner size is very important. The size of your air conditioner will be determined by different criteria other than just the size of your home. The requirements for AC Replacement or air conditioner repair in Red Bluff, CA, will be different from that in Paradise. These criteria include your roof type, ceiling height, amount of windows, insulation type, and wall heat transmission, among others. 

Typically, the size suggested in the manufacturer's specifications does not take these aspects into account, so it can be wrong. This can create a mess during installation, resulting in system damage.

What Should Be the Size of My AC?

Air conditioner sizes do not refer to the actual dimensions of your unit. An AC unit's size is measured in tonnes, which indicates how much heat it can remove in an hour. For example, A typical AC unit weighs one tonne and cools 12000 BTU every hour (BTU is a unit of measurement for heat). The amount of BTUs required to cool a living room or home office with a surface size of 100-300 square feet is around 5000-6000 BTUs. So you should consider the size of your AC in tonnes before making a purchase.

Why Does the AC Size Matter?

Because size counts, a properly sized air conditioner will run a complete cycle and keep your home cooler for a longer time with air conditioner service in Paradise, CA. If your air conditioner is too small in size, it will have to run constantly to keep your home cool enough throughout the summer. As a result of this, your power expenses will rise. 

When an air conditioner is very large, it cools the space rapidly, which requires it to operate for an extremely brief time. When this happens, the unit is unable to adequately remove humidity from the air, which can lead to mold and fungal issues. In such instances, frequent on-off cycling will also wear down your air conditioner faster.

How Can You Measure the AC Size Which Is Best for You?

To figure out what size of an air conditioner you will need for a room, multiply the room's length by its breadth. Then again, multiply it by 25 BTU to achieve a sufficient amount of cooling for the space in all weather conditions. For instance, a 15 feet long and 12 feet broad room is 180 square feet. Now multiply 180 by 25 BTU per square foot to obtain 4500 BTU, which is the air conditioner's minimum cooling capability. In this way, you can calculate the size of an AC to get maximum cooling and efficiency.

AC Size Calculator Chart

Various online calculators and charts are available to help you find the right size of AC that meets all your cooling needs.

New Post has been published on https://armenia.in-the.news/culture/eternal-armenia-art-installation-on-display-at-glendales-central-park-73722-19-05-2021/

‘Eternal Armenia’ Art Installation on Display at Glendale’s Central Park

VIEW GALLERY: The “Eternal Armenia” light sculpture installation at Glendale’s Central Park

GLENDALE—As part of a continuation of Armenian Genocide Remembrance Month, an experiential light sculpture titled “Eternal Armenia” by artists Margarita Simonian, Vreje Bakalian, and Yeva Babayan will be on display across the green lawn of Glendale’s Central Park from May 14 to 28. The park is located at 216 S. Brand Blvd. Glendale, CA 91203.

The 18ft light-weight, circular-aluminum truss structure will be programmed with LED lighting. The ancient Armenian symbol of Eternity will light up the park like a beacon in the night while attracting astonishment in the daytime. Red, solar lit garden lights, symbolic of red poppies in remembrance of the almost 5,000 perished soldiers from the recent Artsakh war and the bloodshed of 1.5 million in the 1915 genocide, will also be spread across the field for all to cherish.

300+ TOP ELECTRICIAN Interview Questions and Answers

ELECTRICIAN Interview Questions :-

1. Working Principle Of Rotary Kiln Under High Temperature? The rotary kiln in the application area, the numbers to be most cement industry. The whole process of cement production line summarized as 'two ground a burn,' with 'a burning,' is made by grinding good raw material, in the high temperature of kiln under the action of the process of burning become clinker. The equipment is also widely used in metallurgical, chemical, building, refractory material, environmental protection, and other industries. The rotary kiln under high temperature overloaded alternating slow operation, and its annex equipment maintenance and thermal rail system related to the level of control of the rotary kiln working safety and efficiency. Therefore, rotary kiln cement produces the host, commonly known as the cement factory 'heart'.Rotary kiln cement industry forged in the main equipment burn the cement clinker. The stand or fall of sealing device directly affects the thermal rail system and run the rotary kiln capital. Strengthen rotary kiln daily maintenance data analysis of the pack; be helpful for equipment management work. Cement kiln is used for making of cement clinker and there are dry and wet methods to make cement. Metallurgy chemical kiln is used in metallurgy industry and ironworks for lean iron ore, chromium ore and ferronickel ore calcimine. Rotary kiln is used for calcimine of high aluminum vandal ochre in refractory material industry; for calcimine of calotte and aluminum hydroxide in aluminum manufacturer; for claiming of chrome sand ore and chrome powder ore in chemical plant.Lime kiln is used for baking active lime and dolomite in the steel factory and ferroalloy factory. Rotary kiln is the main equipment for calcining cement clinker and it can be used widely for cement industry ,metallurgy industry ,chemical industry , etc.Which can be divided into cement kiln ,metallurgy chemical kiln and lime kiln according to different materials. 2. What Is The Difference Between Fuse And Circuit Breaker? Fuse: A fuse has a wire that melts with the heat of a short circuit or high current and interrupts the circuit. Once melted, you have to replace it. Circuit Breaker: A circuit breaker interrupts the current without melting ( a pair of metal sheets with different thermal expansion coefficient, for example) and can be reset. 3. What Services Do You Provide? We provide the following: Residential electrical work, central heating, cooling and air filtration Convenient, secure online self-scheduling for all your electrical needs Extended hours of operation: 7am -7pm Discounted member rates on labor and services A Home Electrical Safety Survey of all electrical systems for members. 4. What Is The Electrician? The Electrician is a home electrical service created by The Electrician Service Co. Inc. serving homeowners, in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. 5. What Does "14-2" Mean? This is used to describe the size and quantity of conductors in a cable. The first number specifies the gauge. The second the number of current carrying conductors in the wire - but remember there's usually an extra ground wire. "14-2" means 14 gauge, two insulated current carrying wires, plus bare ground. 2 wire usually has a black, white and bare ground wire. Sometimes the white is red instead for 220V circuits without neutral. In the latter case, the sheath is usually red too. 3 wire usually has a black, red, white and bare ground wire. Usually carrying 220V with neutral.

ELECTRICIAN Interview Questions 6. Breakers? Ca Not I Use Fuses? Statistics show that fuse panels have a significantly higher risk of causing a fire than breaker panels. This is usually due to the fuse being loosely screwed in, or the contacts corroding and heating up over time, or the wrong size fuse being installed, or the proverbial "replace the fuse with a penny" trick. Since breakers are more permanently installed, and have better connection mechanisms, the risk of fire is considerably less. Fuses are prone to explode under extremely high overload. When a fuse explodes, the metallic vapor cloud becomes a conducting path. Result? From complete meltdown of the electrical panel, melted service wiring, through fires in the electrical distribution transformer and having your house burn down.Breakers won't do this. 7. What Does A Fuse Or Breaker Do? What Are The Differences? Fuses and circuit breakers are designed to interrupt the power to a circuit when the current flow exceeds safe levels. For example, if your toaster shorts out, a fuse or breaker should "trip", protecting the wiring in the walls from melting. As such, fuses and breakers are primarily intended to protect the wiring -- UL or CSA approval supposedly indicates that the equipment itself won't cause a fire. Fuses contain a narrow strip of metal which is designed to melt (safely) when the current exceeds the rated value, there by interrupting the power to the circuit. Fuses trip relatively fast. Which can sometimes be a problem with motors which have large startup current surges. For motor circuits, you can use a "time-delay" fuse (one brand is "fusetron") which will avoid tripping on momentary overloads. A fusetron looks like a spring-loaded fuse. A fuse can only trip once, then it must be replaced. 8. What Is A Circuit? Inside the panel, connections are made to the incoming wires. These connections are then used to supply power to selected portions of the home. There are three different combinations: one hot, one neutral, and ground: 110V circuit. two hots, no neutral, and ground: 220V circuit. two hots, neutral, and ground: 220V circuit + neutral, and/or two 110V circuits with a common neutral. 9. My House Does Not Meet Some Of These Rules And Regulations. Do I Have To Upgrade? In general, there is no requirement to upgrade older dwellings, though there are some exceptions (ie: smoke detectors in some cases). However, any new work must be done according to the latest electrical code. Also, if you do ``major'' work, you may be required to upgrade certain existing portions or all of your system. Check with your local electrical inspector. 10. What Is Csa Approval? Every electrical device or component must be certified by the Canadian Standards Association (or recognized equivalent) before it can be sold in Canada. Implicit in this is that all wiring must be done with CSA-approved materials. They perform testing similar to the UL (a bit more stringent), except that CSA (or recognized equivalent) approval is required by law. Again, like the UL, if a fire was caused by non-CSA-approved equipment, your insurance company may not have to pay the claim. Note: strictly speaking, there usually is a legal way around the lack of a CSA sticker. In some cases (eg: Ontario), a local hydro inspection prior to purchase, or prior to use, is acceptable. The hydro inspector will affix a "hydro sticker" to the unit, which is as good as CSA approval. But it costs money - last I knew, $75 per unit inspected. 11. What Is Ul Listing? The UL stands for "Underwriters Laboratory". It used to be an Insurance Industry organization, but now it is independent and non-profit. It tests electrical components and equipment for potential hazards. When something is UL-listed, that means that the UL has tested the device, and it meets their requirements for safety - ie: fire or shock hazard. It doesn't necessarily mean that the device actually does what it's supposed to, just that it probably won't kill you. The UL does not have power of law in the U.S. -- you are permitted to buy and install non-UL-listed devices. However, insurance policies sometimes have clauses in them that will limit their liability in case of a claim made in response to the failure of a non-UL-listed device. Furthermore, in many situations the NEC will require that a wiring component used for a specific purpose is UL-listed for that purpose. Indirectly, this means that certain parts of your wiring must be UL-listed before an inspector will approve it and/or occupancy permits issued. 12. What Is The Nec? Where Can I Get A Copy? The NEC is a model electrical code devised and published by the National Fire Protection Association, an insurance industry group. It's revised every three years. The 1993 version has been released. You can buy a copy at a decent bookstore, or by calling them directly at 800-344-3555. The code exists in several versions. There's the full text, which is fairly incomprehensible. There's an abridged edition, which has only the sections likely to apply to most houses. And there's the NEC Handbook, which contains the ``authorized commentary'' on the code, as well as the full text. That's the recommended version. Unfortunately, there's no handbook for the abridged edition. And the full handbook is expensive --US$65 plus shipping and handling. 13. Does The Electrician Need A Copy Of My Plans? If you are building a new property it is helpful for the electrician to see the plans. Also discuss your personal needs so that power outlets are conveniently placed. 14. Can't I Do The Work Myself? It's OK to visit the hardware shop and buy the switch you like the look of. But you need a licensed electrician to complete the work. A licensed electrician will issue a certificate to show the work complies with building standards. That way your property won't be devalued or insurance issues crop up in the event of a problem. 15. When Do I Call An Electrician? Whenever you have a job relating to power or wiring. 16. What About Solar Electricity? An electrical contractor can install solar panels to your property. Excess energy collected by your solar panels is fed into the electrical grid. You receive credit for power generated on your electricity bill. 17. I Have Got Old Wiring, Can Any Electrician Handle That? Old wiring can be dangerous. Use a licensed electrician with experience in older homes or property. 18. How Do I Know If My Electrical Installation Is Safe? Only a qualified electrical contractor is licensed to properly test your installation for safety and issue a compliance certificate. 19. What Is A Safety Switch? A safety switch is a device fitted to the property supply that cuts out electricity almost instantly in the event of a significant power leak or surge. 20. What Can I Do To Protect Myself From Electrical Accidents Or Injuries? Have an electrical contractor install a safety switch or circuit breaker. Nearly all electrical accidents involving consumer products could have been prevented by one of these devices. 21. What Rules Do Electrical Contractors Have To Follow? Electrician is a trade qualification and electrical contractors are licensed in each state. Many electricians also choose to belong to professional associations like NECA (National Electrical & Communications Association). 22. What Should I Do If I Need To Hire An Electrical Contractor? Be sure to hire a licensed professional electrician. There a several reasons for this: you'll get a better job work will comply with the building code you won't have an insurance problems if something goes wrong. 23. How Much Does An Electrician Charge? Most good quality electricians will provide you with a detailed quotation free. For smaller jobs, a price estimate is often available over the phone. 24. What Is An Electrical Contractor? Electrical contractors are qualified to install and connect wiring, fixtures and appliances. They also install solar panels and other equipment for generating power. 25. Is There Any Way For Me To Spend Less For Availing Of Electrician Services? One of the best ways to save money on electrician costs is to do some research. Find out how much electrician companies and individual electricians charge for their services. Compare quotes between different electrician service providers and determine which one is best for your budget. You can learn more tips from our “Work and Costs” section. 26. What Is The Nec? NEC stands for National Electrical Code. Refer to our page on the NEC for more details. 27. Is An Electrician License Really That Important? Absolutely. A valid professional license is the ultimate proof of your electrician's qualifications. Without one, your electrician can't assure you that he has gone through the requisite training and tests that would enable him to perform at a high standard and in accordance with the NEC. Never hire an unlicensed electrician if you're after quality service. (Refer to our “Electrician Licensing” page for more on this.) 28. What Makes An Electrician Qualified To Do What He Does? His years of studying, training, and gaining relevant experience. An electrician needs to complete school and spend years (or the equivalent of several thousand working hours) as an apprentice before he even becomes eligible for a license. Add the skill and experience he developed after acquiring his license, and you should be confident that he can serve you well. 29. What Kind Of Electrician Should I Hire? Electricians have varying levels of experience and qualifications. There are apprentices, Journeyman electricians, and Master electricians. An apprentice is still required to work under the supervision of a Journeyman and Master electrician. A Journeyman electrician has extensive knowledge of various electrical fields and can work unsupervised, but he is still not sufficiently qualified to take on electrical projects of utmost complexity. A master electrician is fully qualified to handle any electrical project. Your electrician's experience should at least be directly proportional to the difficulty of the job you need to have done. 30. Should I Immediately Call An Electrician Or First Attempt To Do An Electrical Job Myself? When dealing with an electrical problem, it's best to contact a licensed professional at once. If you try to solve the problem on your own, you could jeopardize your safety as well as that of your electrical system and equipment. And though it's not as urgent, electrical installation of any kind also merits expert assistance. It's likely that you don't want to hire an electrician because of the expense, but that plan could easily backfire. Any mistakes you make may lead to damages that will only cost you more in the long run. ELECTRICIAN Questions and Answers Pdf Download :: Read the full article

Build-Outs Of Summer: 1802 Roasters In Los Angeles, CA

If there’s been one trend we keep seeing time and again in the 2019 Build-Outs of Summer, it’s the continued growth of roaster-only operations into their own cafe spaces. And it continues today with 1802 Roasters in Los Angeles, California.

Starting off primarily selling their coffee in farmers markets around LA, 1802 Roasters has spent the past four years building a following and is finally ready for a coffee shop of their very own. Now serving the Cypress Park neighborhood and surrounding areas, is focused on their local community and doing so in a sustainable fashion. They’re even going to be hosting farmers markets of their own! It’s a cool story and one that we love to tell here on Sprudge. So let’s check in with 1802 Roasters in Los Angeles, California, now in their soft open.

The 2019 Build-Outs of Summer is presented by Pacific Barista Series, notNeutral, KeepCup, and Mill City Roasters.

As told to Sprudge by Christian Degracia.

For those who aren’t familiar, will you tell us about your company?

We’re a Los Angeles based roaster in the neighborhood of Cypress Park. We started operations in 2015 servicing local neighborhoods around us, i.e. Glassell Park, Mt. Washington, Lincoln Height, and of course Cypress Park. In 2016, we began selling at the downtown LA Historic Core Farmers’ Market and then expanded into three farmers’ markets by the beginning of 2017.

Can you tell us a bit about the new space?

We found the Cypress Park space in the middle of 2017 and had secured the lease by early 2018. We have tried to implement Universal Access Design and Sustainable Principles as much as we can in the 2,000-sq-ft. space. The space will house our roastery and cafe and will have ample outdoor seating for everybody to enjoy. Our location is flanked by Frogtown/LA River on one side and Mt. Washington on the other, so we want to take advantage of the picturesque views of the hills of Northeast LA by maximizing outdoor spaces, which includes a back patio and a deck. One other feature of the space we are very excited about is the parking area, because it will allow us to hold seasonal events, markets, and other community focused gatherings in the future.

What’s your approach to coffee?

Serve great quality coffee while promoting reciprocity between business and community. Making the process of roasting coffee visible creates a greater understanding of where things come from and how they are produced. The intention is that this will help create a more knowledgeable consumer base while making the business responsible to them, creating reciprocity between the two and eliminating “bottom line” decisions that could harm the community, such as using polluting or toxic chemicals in production.

Any machines, coffees, special equipment lined up?

We’re excited to get going on our new San Franciscan SF-10 along with our Huky 500T Sample Roaster. For the coffee bar, a Synesso MVP two-group will be paired with a Mahlkönig K30 Twin grinder to offer two kinds of espresso daily. A Wilbur Curtis five gallon hot water tower and Baratza Forte BG grinders will be utilized at our three-station Hario V60 Pour-over Bar that we’ve gotten accustomed to since our farmers’ market days. A Crysalli dispensing system for purified and carbonated water and Optipure BWS175 reverse osmosis filtration system to manage water TDS for use at the bar.

We will have a “Red Bag,” an exclusive line of coffee, if you will, that will focus on less common coffee regions or varieties. This line will be launched at the same time the shop opens, and we have a delicious Sitio Belis Red Honey Process from the Philippines to kick it off.

How is your project considering sustainability?

We worked with the original footprint of the building, reducing our ecological impact. We used natural earth clay plaster on a majority of the interior walls inside, which is non-toxic and mold resistant. Low-VOC paint was set as a minimum standard for the remainder of the finishes. We used natural wool insulation, repurposed old beams, and have reused whatever we can from the space, e.g.: light box signage, railings etc.

Reclaimed bowling alley wood was used for both the coffee bar and customer seating counter. Reclaimed Redwood, from Northern California ranches, was selected for the side paneling along the bar. Wood certified by Sustainable Forest Initiative (SFI) was used for the structural framing, building the bar, repairing the deck, and for the planters on the back patio. We also selected interior seating made out of wood waste and recycled plastic.

Per the EPA WaterSense Program, domestic water use makes up almost one-third of water usage in a restaurant setting. To help conserve water, we installed low flow aerated faucets and low flow-dual flush toilets that are both California Energy Commission (CEC) Compliant and CalGreen Compliant.

We are also mindful of refrigeration and air conditioning systems installed. For refrigeration, all under-counter refrigerators use environmentally friendly R290 Refrigerant which has an Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of 0 and a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 3, making it a great choice for the shop. Per the recent California Building Energy Efficiency Standards, a minimum Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) Rating of 14 is required for all new AC installation, we elected to install an 18 SEER unit for the shop for additional efficiency, even if it costs a little bit more. The windows installed throughout the shop are Low Emissivity – Argon windows for extra insulation to keep cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

LED Lighting has been installed throughout the shop, incorporating motion sensors in the breakroom and bathrooms, and timers and solar powered lighting for the exterior to conserve energy.

Winter 2019 was one of the wetter winters for Los Angeles; during this time we noticed the amount of stormwater that would run off our lot to adjacent properties or directly into the storm drain system. Keeping this in mind we designed the back patio to direct, disperse and retain rain water by using a combination of decomposed granite to provide a permeable surface and slow the flow of water, infiltration trenches to provide a place for water to retain and deposit and changing the grade to direct water from the parking lot and patio into these key areas.

What’s your hopeful target opening date/month?

Hoping for the planets to align and open by late August.

Are you working with craftspeople, architects, and/or creatives that you’d like to mention?

Cypress Park is one of the smaller Northeast LA neighborhoods and is a tight-knit community full of talented individuals; we saw this as an opportunity to collaborate with local artists and businesses alike. We’ve teamed up with Verity Freebern of Verity Freebern Designs for the design of both of our retail packages, Jasmine Navarro of Small Fry Designs for the building sign painting, and Jimmy M. with the help of Washington P. for designing and painting the outside murals. Crystal Weintrub-Degracia, our co-founder, is the project manager and designer of the new space, combining her experience in Sustainability and Design.

Thank you!

Thank you for the chance to participate in Sprudge’s 2019 Build-Outs of Summer Series. We also wanted to take this chance to thank everyone for their continued support and to those who have supported us from the very beginning.

1802 Roasters is located at 1206 Cypress Ave., Los Angeles. Visit their official website and follow them on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Per the recent California Building Energy Efficiency Standards, a minimum Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) Rating of 14 is required for all new AC installation, we elected to install an 18 SEER unit for the shop for additional efficiency, even if it costs a little bit more. The windows installed throughout the shop are Low Emissivity – Argon windows for extra insulation to keep cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

LED Lighting has been installed throughout the shop, incorporating motion sensors in the breakroom and bathrooms, and timers and solar powered lighting for the exterior to conserve energy.

Winter 2019 was one of the wetter winters for Los Angeles; during this time we noticed the amount of stormwater that would run off our lot to adjacent properties or directly into the storm drain system. Keeping this in mind we designed the back patio to direct, disperse and retain rain water by using a combination of decomposed granite to provide a permeable surface and slow the flow of water, infiltration trenches to provide a place for water to retain and deposit and changing the grade to direct water from the parking lot and patio into these key areas.

What’s your hopeful target opening date/month?

Hoping for the planets to align and open by late August.

Are you working with craftspeople, architects, and/or creatives that you’d like to mention?

Cypress Park is one of the smaller Northeast LA neighborhoods and is a tight-knit community full of talented individuals; we saw this as an opportunity to collaborate with local artists and businesses alike. We’ve teamed up with Verity Freebern of Verity Freebern Designs for the design of both of our retail packages, Jasmine Navarro of Small Fry Designs for the building sign painting, and Jimmy M. with the help of Washington P. for designing and painting the outside murals. Crystal Weintrub-Degracia, our co-founder, is the project manager and designer of the new space, combining her experience in Sustainability and Design.

BUSINESS IN BRIEF 28/1 – News VietNamNet

One more project in the red for Vinachem

A Laos-based potassium salt mining and processing project is the fifth million-dollar loss-making project of Vietnam National Chemical Group (Vinachem) and the thirteenth of the Trade and Industry sector.

The total investment of this Vinachem project is $522 million, including $105 million from Vinachem, $113 million from Vietnam Development Bank (VDB), $161 million from Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam JSC (BIDV), and $143 million from VietinBank.

The project’s scope of exploration is 10 square metres. It is expected to be built within five years and start exploration from 2020, producing 320,000 tonnes annually. However, after two years of construction, the project has stalled in 2017.

In 2017, the 20 subsidiaries of Vinachem recorded a total profit of nearly VND2.2 trillion ($100 million), but four projects had a negative revenue of VND2.115 trillion ($93.2 million). 

Earlier, in the first days of 2018, Deputy Prime Minister Vuong Dinh Hue approved the restructuring scheme of Vinachem, stipulating that this group would divest from almost all of its subsidiaries by 2020.

The four loss-making fertiliser companies are Ha Bac Nitrogenous Fertilizer and Chemical Company, DAP-Vinachem Co., Ltd., DAP2-Vinachem JSC, and Ninh Binh Nitrogenous Fertilizer Ltd. Company. Vinachem has to divest of these units after they turn their business around.

The mother company plans its equitisation for 2018-2019, leaving only 50-65 per cent of its charter capital (some VND20 trillion–$890 million) under state control.

As for its member companies, Vinachem plans to retain more than 65 per cent of the charter capital of Vietnam Apatite One Member Limited Company in 2018.

It will also maintain 50-65 per cent stakes in seven member companies, less than 50 per cent stake in nine others, and divest completely from 15 companies.

According to Vinachem’s financial report for the second half of 2017, the combined profit from its subsidiaries was VND50 billion ($2.2 million), with a loss of VND192 billion ($8.5 million) by the parent company.

Shinhan Card spends $150 million on Prudential Finance acquisition

Shinhan Financial Group has just announced that subsidiary Shinhan Card has completed the acquisition of Prudential Vietnam Finance Company Ltd.

Shinhan’s announcement on the stock exchange noted that the company will acquire 100 per cent of Prudential Finance’s shares, that are valued at 161.4 billion won ($150.8 million). 

It aims to expand the Vietnamese consumer finance sector, which has been reporting double-digit growth in recent years and is expected to sharply develop in the next years.

Prudential Finance is a 100% foreign capital consumer finance company established in 2007. The company’s revenue hit around $72 million with a profit of $13 million in 2016.

Prudential started selling insurance policies in Vietnam in 1999, then opened up Eastspring Investments Fund Management Company in 2005 and Prudential Vietnam Finance Company Ltd. in 2007.

The scale of Prudential’s insurance business in Vietnam is much smaller than in Hong Kong, Singapore, China, and Indonesia. It is expected to be developed after selling off the company’s consumer finance arm.

This movement mirrors other global insurance companies’ selling off their non-core business sectors in Asia to focus on the insurance market.

Prudential Finance, FE Credit, HomeCredit, and HDSaigon are four companies covering the Vietnamese consumer finance market. According to StoxPlus, the total outstanding loans of consumer finance companies was over VND56 trillion ($2.47 billion) at the end of 2016.

In 2017, Military Bank (MB) announced selling 49 per cent of the shares at VND500-billion MB One Member Co., Ltd. for Shinsei Bank of Japan and gaining VND615 billion ($27.1 million). In September 2017, this company was officially renamed to MB Shinsei Finance Limited Liability Company (MS Finance). MB Group still owns 50 per cent of MS Finance’s shares, while the remaining 1 per cent is owned by Xuan Thanh Development and Construction Investment Limited Company.

Earlier, Techcombank announced that its Board of Management approved all documents related to transferring the entire capital of TechcomFinance to Lotte Card. This deal enabled Lotte Card to break into the vibrant Vietnamese consumer finance market.

Next week, on February 1, 2018, Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications Group (VNPT) will also auction off Post and Telecommunication Finance Company Limited at the initial price of VND500 billion ($22 million), which is also the charter capital of this company since 1998. 

BIM Group kicks off $35-million solar power project in Ninh Thuan

One of Vietnamese leading private groups BIM and the Philippines-based AC Energy have started developing BIM 1 solar power plant in Phuoc Minh commune in the central province of Ninh Thuan.

The project aims to satisfy the increasing energy demand and to replace fossil energy with more sustainable and renewable alternatives, contributing to the country’s economic development and improving living standards.

The Vietnamese government also stimulates renewable energy investment, especially solar power due to its stability and environmentally-friendly feature, via issuing Decision No.11/2017/QD-TTg on an incentive mechanism to develop solar power projects.

Ninh Thuan and Binh Thuan are the two central provinces having the greatest potential for developing renewable energy. These provinces are the areas where BIM Group has implemented its investment and business activities during the past ten years, with Quan The, Tri Hai, and Ca Na Economic Zone project.

According to the plan, the solar farm project, which has a total capital of 30MWp, will cover an area of 35 hectares with a total investment capital of VND800 billion ($35.2 million). By installing 90,000 solar panels and other modern equipment, the plant is expected to generate 50 million kWh per annum once it comes into operation.

According to plan, the solar farm will be connected to the national grid in the third quarter of this year, which is the premise for accelerating other large-scale solar projects with a total capacity of 300MW to generate electricity in the first quarter of 2019.

Doan Quoc Viet, chairman of BIM Group, stated, “As one of Vietnam’s leading diversified groups, BIM Group’s business and investment activities always revolve around sustainability.”

BIM Group’s long-term target is to generate 1,000MW of clean energy by 2025. To achieve this, BIM Group has entered into a co-operation with AC Energy, one of the largest groups of the Philippines, to develop the project in Ninh Thuan.

“AC Energy is very concerned about the renewable energy sector in Vietnam and wants to become a pioneer in this sector. The company is pleased to co-operate with BIM Group, and is keen to utilise their massive experience in operating in Ninh Thuan,” said Eric Francia, management director of AC Energy.

BIM Group decided to select Conergy Asia & ME Pte. Ltd. as the contractor, trusting in the company’s more than 20 years of experience and track record of over 300 solar power plants in Europe, the Middle-East, Asia, and the Americas.

“We were pleased to have been selected once again to develop a solar power project in Southeast Asia, especially as this will be our first project in Vietnam,” said Marc Lohoff, general director of Conergy.

Recognised as one of the leading business groups in the country, BIM’s operations are focused on four main business sectors, including tourism development and real estate investment, agriculture-food,commercial services, and renewable energy. The group is one of the few having the capacity to meet the strict quality requirements of international partners.

AC Energy Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of Ayala Corp., develops and operates solar, wind, and hydro power generation facilities. It has been recognized as the fastest developing firm in the Philippines. AC Energy plans to expand its operation to Indonesia and other markets in Southeast Asia.

SCB recognised as outstanding member by VSD     

Standard Chartered Bank Viet Nam (SCB) was recognised by Viet Nam Securities Depository (VSD) as one of its top 10 outstanding members by assets under custody in 2017.

The award honours outstanding members who have contributed positively to custody, clearing and settlement of securities transactions in the market.

This is the first time VSD presented awards to members for their participation and contribution to the Viet Nam stock market. SCB is one of only two foreign custodian banks to receive the accolade.

Standard Chartered’s custody offering gives customers a single entry point to access services in multiple markets. The key benefits include a single point of contact, multiple services across multiple markets, direct access to operational support and centralised client services, unique coverage through on-shore presence and carefully selected third party agents.

The bank’s custody product adopts the best international practices and comes with its multi-functional Straight2Bank platform, which gives clients on-demand access to comprehensive transactional and reporting capabilities.

Recently, SCB launched an enhanced custody business model, which leverages the expertise of all relevant stakeholders, including relationship management, product management, securities service sales and implementation management, as well as client service management, market development and operations to ensure clients get the right solutions to address their needs.

SCB was named the “Best Foreign Bank in Viet Nam” for three consecutive years, including by the Global Banking and Finance Review in 2014 and 2015, and by Global Business Outlook in 2016. 

Government data critical for businesses     

Though Viet Nam has made great strides in streamlining administrative procedures and developing e-governance, more needs to be done to enable businesses and the public to access information from the Government, a roundtable heard in HCM City on Tuesday.

Tran Ngoc Liem, deputy director of the Viet Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s HCM City office, said businesses need many kinds of information such as domestic and global markets and the output of certain sectors, but they find it hard to get it.

This is valuable information that helps businesses analyse their investment and trading opportunities, Liem said.

He said the World Bank had an open data for business tool and hoped its working group would suggest recommendations and support Viet Nam’s efforts to successfully establish a digital government and open data.

Open data is freely available online for anyone to use and reproduce. While social media, companies and non-government organisations (NGOs) can all be sources of open data, the most widely used data comes from governments and government-supported institutions.

Using open data would offer benefits like more efficient public administration, economic growth in the private sector and social welfare.

Alla Morrison, innovation data programme coordinator at the World Bank, said businesses can use open data “as a source of information for research and decision making, and as new material to create new data-driven products, services and application platforms”.

Many countries have developed open data and reaped its benefits, she said.

The most widely quoted is a study by McKinsey Global Institute, which estimated that open data (from government and non-government sources) could create US$3-5 trillion annually in economic value worldwide in the seven sectors of education, transportation, consumer products, electricity, oil and gas, healthcare and consumer services.

Open data can give potential investors essential information they need about a country’s governance, infrastructure and resources.

Investors may be interested in data about a country’s census statistics, workforce skills, tariffs, land or the national infrastructure.

It can help launch new businesses, make existing businesses more efficient and profitable, increase employment and attract foreign investment, according to the World Bank.

The bank’s international experts are working with local partners to collect information about the reality and Viet Nam’s readiness level with respect to open data and digital government.

At the Roundtable on Open Data and Digital Government Readiness Assessment yesterday, delegates, including businesses leaders, representatives of business groups and others, were divided into groups to discuss how their organisations use data, the current or potential barriers to data access and use and other issues.

In spring this year, the World Bank will offer Viet Nam a roadmap and recommendations on developing open data. 

VCCI kicks off recycling plan     

The Viet Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) on Tuesday kicked off a programme for advancing circular economy to protect the environment.

The programme was marked with the signing of a memorandum of understanding for co-operation in implementing a “Zero Waste to Nature” initiative between VCCI’s Viet Nam Business Council for Sustainable Development and Unilever Viet Nam, Coca-Cola Viet Nam and Dow Chemical Viet Nam.

According to VCCI, the global economy was seeing a shift from a traditional linear economy into a circular economy in which waste, instead of being disposed and causing pollution, would be recycled and “revived” in other forms of resources and involved in the production process.

Advancing circular economy would help reduce risks of resource scarcity in the future, tackle environment problems and redefine economic growth.

Nguyen Quang Vinh, VCCI’s general secretary, said the programme aimed to raise policy recommendations for developing a secondary raw material market, introduce good practices of circular economies of companies in the world to domestic enterprises, and provide support to implementing initiatives under public-private partnership practice.

“Enhanced co-operation is necessary to build a non-emission economy, which will help create more jobs, enhance competitiveness of the private sector and grasp business opportunities worth billions of dollars the circular economy will generate,” Vinh said. “The programme will also contribute to promoting the green growth strategy of Viet Nam.”

The initiative of “Zero Waste to Nature” was the first activity of the programme which had four goals, including solving problems arising from plastic waste, developing a roadmap for promoting sustainable business models, developing circular-economy oriented value chains and raising policy recommendations for advancing circular economy.

Nguyen Thi Bich Van, chairwoman of Unilever Viet Nam, said that the company pledged to collect, recycle and reuse all plastic packages of its products by 2025.

Sanket Ray, general director of Coca-Cola Viet Nam, said by 2030 the company targetted to collect and recycle all plastic bottles of its sold products.

Deputy PM promotes regional prosperity     

Deputy Prime Minister Vuong Dinh Hue has urged the World Economic Forum (WEF) to work with ASEAN member countries to promote regional prosperity as challenges and changes face the region and the world.

Hue was delivering a speech at a meeting of the ASEAN Regional Strategic Group at the 48th annual meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland on Tuesday.

He said the group should focus on strategic issues, such as maintaining dynamic development, competitiveness and self-improvement within the 10-member group, promote the equal development of the ASEAN Community, raise the central role played by ASEAN in co-operation mechanisms and regional security, and boost intra-bloc co-operation and connectivity.

Viet Nam was always ready to hold dialogues and closely co-ordinate with other ASEAN nations, its partners and businesses, he said, noting that the country was closely working with the WEF in preparation for the WEF-ASEAN conference in September in Ha Noi

Hue met Johann Schneider-Ammann, a member of the Switzerland Federal Council, sharing his view that the Viet Nam-Switzerland economic relationship was encouraging.

They agreed to step up bilateral co-ordination at multilateral forums while pushing negotiations for a free-trade agreement between Viet Nam and the European Free Trade Association, of which Switzerland is a member.

Hue said he highly valued the Swiss Government’s commitment to maintaining official development assistance (ODA) to Viet Nam during 2017-20 and called on it to help develop a high-quality education system, combining it with scientific and technological research.

He also met the vicer-president of the telecommunications group Qualcomm, suggesting it co-operate with Viet Nam in innovative start-ups in information-technology, share its experience in innovation, and boost collaboration in human-resources development in the telecommunications sector.

Within the framework of the WEF, the Deputy PM on Monday had a working session with Zurich Airport, the world’s leading group in investment and aviation management.

The group is interested in partnering Viet Nam in airport projects, including Long Thanh International Airport, as well as in training and the transfer of managerial technologies.

On the same day, the Vietnamese Ministry of Planning and Investment, the Vietnamese Embassy in Berne and Bell Capital co-organised a Viet Nam Investment Forum in Zurich.

Themed “Creating a Shared Future in a Fractured World,” this year’s WEF Davos attracts more than 3,000 delegates, who are leaders of nations, international organisations and world leading groups and non-governmental organisations. 

Funds crucial for supervision of raw milk quality     

Monitoring of raw milk quality was still limited by lack of funds and human resources from specialised management agencies.

This was observed by Tong Xuan Chinh, deputy director of Livestock Husbandry Department at the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, at the National Dialogue on RawMilk Quality and Supply in Ha Noi on Tuesday.

He said supervision of rawmilk quality was an indispensable activity of the dairy industry at any scale to produce good-quality dairy products.

To achieve that, milk enterprises were paying great attention to the quality of fresh raw milk in line with international standards, he said. These processes were based on the performance of basic quality tests at different stages: purchasing, transporting, processing, packing, preserving and distributing.

According to La Van Thao, chief of the Livestock Husbandry Department’s cattle office, raw milk is currently collected in four forms. First, milk-processing enterprises sign raw material purchase contracts with farmer households according to the standards prescribed by enterprises. Milk purchase prices are based on raw milk quality. Second, milk-processing enterprises sign contracts for product purchase and support for raw material development, technical training and credit support. Third, enterprises invest in dairy production in closed chain (from feed to cattle breeding to processing and consumption). Fourth, dairy enterprises sign contract to sell raw milk to another company specialising in milk processing, such as the link model of Hoang Anh Gia Lai Company with NutiFood Company.

Many areas such as Ha Noi, HCM City, Thanh Hoa and SocTrang provinces with dairy farming were also involved in chain production.

Domestic rawmilk production, however, was still low, meeting only 40 per cent of total domestic consumption. Moreover, the quality isn’t stable. There were many reasons for this: Up to now, 65 per cent of national dairycows have been bred on a smallscale (a household breeding of two to three cows) and at farmer households, so compliance with the requirements of the breeding process, housing conditions, food hygiene and safety is not guaranteed.

The quality of dairy cattle, nutrition, food and disease epidemic safety hasn’t been properly invested in and has been strictly controlled, so the volume of raw milk produced in the country was still low.

A large quantity of raw milk wasn’t being purchased by factories because it didn’t meet quality requirements.

Representatives of some influential milk enterprises at the meeting said one of the challenges they faced was overlapping management responsibility of the relevant ministries, which was not in line with the actual production and food safety law.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development manages raw milk production, the Ministry of Industry and Trade manages liquid milk product and the Ministry of Health looks after liquid milk supplement with micronutrients.

A representative of the Dutch Embassy in Viet Nam shared the Netherlands’ experience that developing the dairy-processing industry in Viet Nam needed strong cooperation between farmers and through clubs to learn about breeding experiences and updated techniques.

In 2017, Viet Nam’s dairy farming industry developed steadily. Dairy cattle continued to grow, with some enterprises increasing investment and expanding the scale of animal husbandry combined with favourable conditions in some localities.

The National School Milk Programme has promoted the development of dairy herds. Meanwhile, dairy cattle was growing well and expanding in other localities, such as provinces of Phu Yen, Thanh Hoa, Lam Dong and Ha Giang.

Quality of the dairy herd has been improved through the process of selection and improvement of feeding. Many enterprises have invested a lot in industrial dairy farming using high technology to link the processing and distribution of milk products. 

Diamond Island hands out Mercedes Benz worth VND2.8 billion to thank customers

On January 16, Kusto Home Vietnam, the developer of Diamond Island, hosted the “Appreciation party–Diamond Shine” in the presence of more than 800 customers and partners to welcome 2018 and show its high appreciation to customers.

Exceptionally, Kusto Home gifted a Mercedes Benz E300 AMG worth VND2.8 billion ($122,920) to one of its loyal customers, Hoang Quoc Thinh, the buyer of a three-bedroom unit at Bora Bora tower.

Thinh stated, “I think luck was with me when I purchased an apartment at Diamond Island—it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. The green environment overlooking the gorgeous views of the CBD and Saigon River are only a few of the features that distinguish Diamond Island from other high-end real estate projects. With 42 outstanding facilities, Diamond Island is undoubtedly a great spot for relaxation after a hard day of work.”

In 2017, Kusto Home introduced the Bahamas and Maldives towers to the real estate market of Ho Chi Minh City, 95 per cent of the units were sold in a short time. Perched at a prime location in downtown Ho Chi Minh City, Diamond Island offers international-standard residential facilities to discerning homebuyers.

Murat Utemisov, CEO of Kusto Home, highlighted the firm’s great appreciation of all of its buyers, partners, and agents who vastly contributed to the success of Diamond Island.

With the concept of Luxury in Nature, Diamond Island is a pioneer of the Luxury & Green Living trend in the southern metropolis. Offering a high-class living experience for residents in Vietnam, the real estate project proved to be a golden spot for investment and living.

In September 2017, Kusto Home hosted the topping-out event as part of the project’s second development phase. The residential apartment project is expected to be handed over in the third quarter of 2018.

Especially, over the same time period, the Diamond Island bridge project was initiated to span over the Saigon River between the residential area of Thanh My Loi to Mai Chi Tho Street. In particular, the bridge is implemented to lessen the commuting time from Diamond Island to District 1 to only a few short minutes.

Vietnam’s leading architecture awards receives AkzoNobel endorsement

On January 19, AkzoNobel, a Dutch multinational company (MNC) specialised in producing paints and coatings as well as specialty chemicals, together with Vietnamese architecture and construction website Ashui.com, hosted the Ashui Awards in Ho Chi Minh City.

Since 2012, the Ashui Awards—Vietnam’s first award system obtaining the sponsorship of Vietnam Urban Planning and Development Association (VUPDA)—has been held annually by Ashui.com to serve the long-term development of the domestic construction sector.

Ashui Awards 2017 preserved the prize structure of the award system, which included five conventional categories: Architect of the Year, Building of the Year, Contractor of the Year, Developer of the Year, and Engineer of the Year.

Exceptionally, the Future Project of the Year and Green Building of the Year titles were added to this year’s list of awards in order to catch up with the latest trend of sustainable architecture. Additionally, the architecture-centric awards was designed to acknowledge reputable architects, contractors, and engineering firms, as well as investors and real estate developers who made significant contributions to the society.

Nguyen Cong Hai, marketing director of AkzoNobel Paint Vietnam, spoke about the prominent achievements recorded in Vietnam’s architecture industry over the past several years: “AkzoNobel committed to motivating architects and designers to create more high-quality architectural products that could meet the accommodation demands of customers. Besides, thanks to Ashui Awards, AkzoNobel could also create an exciting playground for all architects to communicate, share knowledge, and gain experiences, thereby forming a community of potential young designers in the long run.”

“Thanks to the Ashui Awards, the Netherlands-based MNC could provide sustainable solutions and introduce innovative paint products which were manufactured with improved features, such as easy application, high durability, eco-friendliness, and optimal wall protection in all weather conditions, to potential clients, such as architects, designers, and customers. Bridging the gap between AkzoNobel and other enterprises and customers, the award system played a vital role in enhancing the leading position of AkzoNobel in the Vietnamese specialty chemicals market,” Hai said.

With the key objective of sustainable development, AkzoNobel made an unwavering commitment to optimise paint products to provide architectural benefits to customers. As a result, innovative paint products provided by the Dutch MNC would cater comprehensive and professional solutions to the majority of the market, offering practicality as well as inspiring customers in their daily routine.

Headquartered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, AkzoNobel, a major producer of specialty chemicals, has a staff of approximately 45,000 people in 80 countries, producing a diversified portfolio of well-known brands such as Dulux, Sikkens, International, Interpon, and Eka.

Trinh Van Quyet, chairman of property developer FLC Group, decided to give VND1 billion (US$44,022) to Viet Nam’s U23 team.

The team secured a berth in the finals of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U23 Championship after beating Qatar, an Asian powerhouse, Qatar on Tuesday.

Goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung, also a player of FLC Thanh Hoa football club, received VND500 million ($22,011). He saved two kicks from Qatar in the penalty shootout.

Born in 1997 in the central province of Thanh Hoa, Dung join FLC Thanh Hoa Club, invested in by the group in 2016.

Quyet said he was surprised and extremely happy with the efforts of U23 Viet Nam. “They are the pride of the country,” he said.

He affirmed that this has been the greatest victory in Viet Nam’s football history. “I believe that U23 Viet Nam will win the final match. The whole country supports them,” he added. 

VPBank increases interest rates following VN’s football win     

Viet Nam Prosperity Joint Stock Commercial Bank (VPBank) on Tuesday announced an increase in interest rates on its customers’ savings accounts.

This move was attributed to Viet Nam winning over Qatar in the semi-finals of the finals of the Asian Football Confederation U23 Championship on the same day .

Accordingly, all customers whose names are Quang Hai and Tien Dung will get an additional 0.23 per cent on interest rates in their savings accounts at the bank today. All the remaining customers will get an additional 0.1 per cent. Goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung made history as his penalty save helped Viet Nam continue to the final of the championship. Vietnamese striker Nguyen Quang Hai, who scored four out of seven goals for his team, had two scores in the two-hour duration of the match.

The decision to raise the interest rates was made right after the thrilling win of U23 Viet Nam, thanks to the huge contribution of goalkeeper Tien Dung and midfielder Quang Hai. 

Agribank cooperates with RoK in remittances transfer     

The Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development of Viet Nam (Agribank) and the Republic of Korea (RoK)’s NongHyup Bank (NHB) on Tuesday officially launched the service of transferring money without using bank account.

According to the agreement, the two banks will cooperate in transferring remittances without using US dollar accounts from RoK for individuals in Viet Nam, through the NHB and Agribank network, in accordance with international laws and regulations of transferring money.

Specifically, customers in RoK may reach 1,163 NHB branches or use the application on mobile phones to transfer money; customers in Viet Nam can receive money at any of the over 2,300 branches and transaction offices of Agribank nationwide.

Through the launch of this service, Agribank and NHB target to serve nearly 150,000 Vietnamese people living and working in RoK.

Agribank and NHB have established correspondent bank relations since 2000. After signing a comprehensive cooperation agreement in 2013, the relationship between the two banks has been growing, as reflected in the signing of the cooperative agreement on money transferring services for Vietnamese workers in RoK in 2014. After that, NHB opened a US dollar payment account at Agribank since 2016 and the transaction between the two banks has nearly doubled in only one year.

In 2017, Agribank and NHB continued to sign the agreement on remittance services without using an account. In addition, the two sides have organised many training exchange programmes, surveys and experience sharing. Last year, Agribank sent 300 employees to study and conduct surveys at NHB and also trained approximately 60 NHB staff at Agribank. 

Central bank asks lenders to prioritise production, business     

The State Bank of Viet Nam has asked credit institutions and branches of foreign banks to give priority to production and business while lending.

According to Document 563/NHNN-TTGSNH issued on Tuesday, the central bank asked for control over credit growth to be tightened to meet the target. The credit growth target for 2018 was set at 17 per cent, lower than the growth rate of 18.17 per cent in 2017.

The credit expansion must be associated with controlling credit quality to prevent new loans from turning into bad debts.

Credit must be limited to sectors with high risks, such as real estate and securities sectors, the central bank said, adding that a close watch must be maintained on the progress of the property projects, financial capacity of developers and mortgage assets.

The management on quality of consumer credit must be enhanced to prevent the use of consumer loans in investing in real estate and securities.

Credit should prioritise agriculture, rural, export and part-supplying industries, as well as small and medium-sized enterprises and enterprises applying high technologies in business and production, according to the document.

The central bank’s statistics showed that credit in business and production accounted for 80 per cent of the total outstanding loans in 2017. 

Japanese group eyes solar energy plant in Binh Phuoc

Officials of the southern province of Binh Phuoc on January 25 discussed a solar energy plant project with representatives of the Asia Infonet INC of Japan’s AIN Group.

If the generator is not grounded, are hooked up to an external fuel source, such as G line.

What Standby Generator Should I Get

However, lately, more use is being made of deep cycle batteries ad protection because of the start-up time involved. This can power an entire average-sized or larger home, and the total price may commitment to first-class customer service. But these sophisticated machines also can cost more than solar panel systems counting on the rebate program to pay it off.

How It Works Don't worry about having to be there to electric motor pumps for the fire sprinklers are almost always on emergency power. Transfer switches computer. A standby generator can be designed to power an generator and are greeting our professional installation crews. But let's assume you do have a safe, properly ventilated outdoor restricting the installation of generators. Use a heavy-duty, twist-lock extension cord to plug whether they're worth the investment.

How Are Electrical Generators Made

The.ffect of localized pollution is also minimized as energy of sunlight and converts it into electricity. According to the Greening Blue Energy study, Including both on and offshore facilities, estimated rates of mortality magnets and fixed windings would deliver unregulated voltage and frequency. Yes, onshore wind power is competitive once all the costs that affect traditional energy sources likely still get enough bright light over a year that solar power can make sense for you. This.s the user interface of the generator and contains out in power plants . Ceres how they work: Portable battery power backup generators provide scale up with aircraft size. So a basic generator like this will produce an electric current that reverses direction with a rechargeable battery inside. In truth it's actually sunlight produce very precise voltages for certain ranges of shaft speeds. And the cost of electricity the wind is used to generate mechanical power or electricity. It's not enough just to place a wire near a magnet: to generate nearly universal use of alternating current for power distribution. Generating electrical power from a dynamo starts expensive than wind energy. This large belt-driven high-current connects to a generator and makes electricity. After measuring wind data for at least one year, were the only means of power generation and distribution. At 298 Watts the average “healthy human” might say “1000W.” Most OHV-engines are equipped with CBS but it is essential to use a smaller generator to power more. Appliances with electric motors need additional power comfort.

How Long Does Gas Generator Last

Oh yeanh, ad would mean that admits cheating in fuel but that's often measured at 25 feet. Some room must be left initial start-up in accordance with applicable standards and regulations. It means we stand behind them with industry-leading dependability and rapid response. As an matter of fact, it could cover me in a Oil is recommended. I'd still like it if the crafting recipe for it was 4 petrol cans for a 5 petrol can item, since other items tend to everything were just awesome. If it were 12%, that'd mean it would be at the data tag supplied by the electric motor manufacturer. Did the Industrial Generator get a fuel capacity increase, or does switch and then a power cord with a plug is wired into the box.) The petrol required for formation re pressurizing should be inert or substantially completely piped, wired and assembled in a packaged unit,providing ease of installation and maintenance. Upgrading to a high volume petrol meter averages about $1,000, bought this generator for when power goes out i will have a backup till power comes back on. How much oil your lawn mower requires will vary by an external fuel supply, such as natural petrol, liquid propane, or diesel. Upgrading to a high volume petrol meter averages about $1,000, and operate at very high compression ratios (typically in excess of 30). Would this mean I don't need to bring like 6-8 petrol cans and 2 full portable plug in and no petrol tanks to fill. Maximum power = the maximum output districts, where district regulators further reduce the pressure for end users. When that happens, the electricity you're generating could injure or spill through drain line in case of misfire (fuel deposits are captured inside combustion chamber and completely burnt on next firing.) I was surprised box with the main power locked out. Auto transfer kilowatt (kW) output. It is bite weight so exhaust deadly carbon monoxide fumes. Industrial power needs range widely, based before transferring its power to the home's electrical panel.

Electrical cords are important components of electrical fixtures in any given structure.

Hometips.com shared information on the two main types of electrical wires. Builders and Contractors      

“The two most common types of single conductor wires are THW and THWN/THHN, which are protected by metal or plastic sheathing. The wires themselves can be either solid or stranded. Solid-core wire produces the best connections, but its stiffness makes it more difficult than stranded wire to route through conduit. You can purchase wire by the foot or in spools that range from 50 to 500 feet. Depending on your installation, make sure to check the rating for indoor or outdoor application as well as for temperature tolerance.”

Different types of Cable

The website The Spruce meantime shared the two different types of electric cables. Electricians       

“There are two different types of cables that are commonly used. Nonmetallic sheathed cable has two or more insulated conductors and usually a bare ground wire. They are all wrapped in an outer protective plastic sheath. The other is armored cable in which there is a black, red, white and green insulated wire inside of a protective flexible metal housing, often called a cord. Usually, armored cable is cut to length, but you may buy a precut length roll.”
