Similar to the KL15, KL30 etc. wiring codes in Automotive Wiring, Automotive relays have their own nomenclature. Automotive OEMs (manufacturers) such as Citroen, Jaguar Land Rover, Ford and others (I don’t know if Tesla does as well, but I suspect not) use automotive relays. The labelling of which utilises the […]

Relays are a kind of electrically operated switch that opens and closes the circuits by receiving electrical signals from outside sources. In this post, we are going to look at mechanical relays. Relays receive an electrical signal and send the signal to other equipment by turning the switch on and […]
I have recently had reason to try out Rapid Harness to draw harnesses for assemblies, I found Rapid Harness to be a bit clunky; A fair while ago I came across WireViz via Hackaday and decided to give that a go for CADing up the loom drawings. WireViz is Free […]
You may have heard the saying “never trust the autorouter”, you may have even seen it written on a t-shirt! Back when I used Eagle ECAD (Before AutoDesk did their thing), there was a built-in autorouter that was a handy tool to use to help with working out if you […]
In the United Kingdom, if you want to place a product on the market you need to ensure that it has a UKCA mark, this is fundamentally the same as the old CE mark. In fact, If you go to all the effort to get the ability to have a […]
Capacitors are used to “Store electrical energy” along with Resistors they make up two of the fundamental components used in electronic circuits. An ideal capacitor should have neither inductance nor resistance. Capacitors – Use Capacitors are used in several different ways in electronic circuits: Charge and Voltage A capacitor is […]
First, we are going to cover some basics in this case Resistors, but, to do this we are going to tell some lies, if you know what the lies are, then chances are that you don’t need to read this post… but please do anyway. Resistors’ values are measured in […]
