    AC vs DC

    You are not getting it. There is no phase angle in direct current because there is no reversal of flow. The difference in phase angle is the...

    AC vs DC

    You disagreed with him that DC is more efficient at transmitting... it is because of inductance and capacitance of AC power. He is asking you to...

    AC vs DC

    Increasing voltage decreases current and the need for larger conductors... AC and DC being equal, you need to use larger conductors for DC just...

    AC vs DC

    But we don't up the voltage, we control reactive power with cat banks and VAR control. DC is more efficient at transmitting power. However... the...

    Phosphates @ 1 ppm

    Ya, the BRS reactor is a easy choice... although you have the TLF... is there a reason you need another one because most folks either run the BRS or...

    Phosphates @ 1 ppm

    So you have some macro and mangroves.... looks like maybe some pellets in a reactor??? You very well could be nitrate limited. Hummm

    Phosphates @ 1 ppm

    I don't really see that you have a problem. Hobby test kits for PO4 are not very accurate first off. Even if the reading is right it is not too...
