    Regulation and licensure in engineering is established by various jurisdictions of the world to encourage life, public welfare, safety, well-being, then environment and other interests of the general public [1] and to define the licensure process through which an engineer becomes licensed to practice engineering and to provide professional services and products to the public.

  3. Reciprocity (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocity_(engineering)

    Reciprocity in linear systems is the principle that a response Rab, measured at a location (and direction if applicable) a, when the system has an excitation signal applied at a location (and direction if applicable) b, is exactly equal to Rba which is the response at location b, when that same excitation is applied at a. This applies for all ...

    As such, international reciprocity is commonplace, and rules or recommendations introduced by FERC often are voluntarily accepted by NERC members outside of FERC's jurisdiction. Therefore, one Canadian Province is a member of a US-based RTO, while two others function as an Electric System Operator (ESO), an organization essentially equal to a ...

  5. Reciprocity (electrical networks) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocity_(electrical...

    Reciprocity of electrical networks is a special case of Lorentz reciprocity, but it can also be proven more directly from network theorems. This proof shows reciprocity for a two-node network in terms of its admittance matrix, and then shows reciprocity for a network with an arbitrary number of nodes by an induction argument.

    Electricians were originally people who demonstrated or studied the principles of electricity, often electrostatic generators of one form or another. [2]In the United States, electricians are divided into two primary categories: lineperson, who work on electric utility company distribution systems at higher voltages, and wiremen, who work with the lower voltages utilized inside buildings.
