Your home’s electrical system 101 - from utility service to the receptacles
18:24
How does power flow from the utility service to the appliances in your home? This Eaton video from our Power Systems Experience Centers highlights the major components of residential power systems including meter sockets, loadcenters, AFCI, GFCI breakers, switches, outlets, smart devices and more. Erik Drost and Ellie Cobb illustrate common considerations when designing or building homes. Contractors and homeowners will benefit from understanding these key electrical components that make up the electrical system in your house.

Reduced voltage soft starters (RVSS) explained | Eaton PSEC
8:51
A reduced voltage soft starter, or RVSS, is an electronic device used to start and control the speed of electric motors. RVSSs are designed to protect motors from sudden influxes in power by limiting inrush current associated with motor startup.

Impedance in power systems explained | Eaton PSEC
8:55
Impedance is a measure of how much a circuit resists the flow of alternating current (AC). High impedance means less current, leading to inefficiencies and power losses. Learn where impedance comes from and how it affects electrical systems.
