When managing electrical circuits in various forms of machinery and applications, there is often a need to manage the flow of electricity in terms of voltage, current, and power. One common method of doing this is through applying resistance, which serves to act against current to limit it to some degree. With components known as variable resistors, resistance levels of circuits can be governed and adjusted as necessary. Among the different types of variable resistors that are popularly used, rheostats are particularly notable for their reliable operation and broad range of applications. This blog will delve into the basics of rheostats, exploring their design, functionality, and common uses, as well as important purchasing and maintenance considerations.

In the realm of electrical engineering and power distribution, circuit breakers serve as guardians against potential hazards like electrical fires and equipment damage. Understanding how circuit breakers function is fundamental knowledge for anyone working with electrical systems, so in this blog, we will delve into the inner workings of these vital components.
