This brief develops a data collection plan to assess loss related to electrical surges in homes, and explores the potential impact devices that prevent these surges could have in mitigating these losses. Key topics such as surge sources, surge effects and residential surge protection are clearly defined. Recent fire safety codes proposed a requirement that every dwelling unit be fitted with a surge protection device, as every year there is property damage to electrical and electronic equipment resulting from electrical surges. These proposals have not been implemented due to a lack of reliable data, which this brief seeks to change. The authors evaluate surge phenomena and their sources, surge protection methods, surge protection strategies and industry standards in order to present a data plan that can accurately assess loss related to electrical surges in homes.

The 2016 International Conference on Automotive Engineering, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering (AEMEE 2016) was held December 9-11, 2016 in Hong Kong, China. AEMEE 2016 was a platform for presenting excellent results and new challenges facing the fields of automotive, mechanical and electrical engineering. Automotive, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering brings together a wide range of contributions from industry and governmental experts and academics, experienced in engineering, design and research. Papers have been categorized under the following headings: Automotive Engineering and Rail Transit Engineering. Mechanical, Manufacturing, Process Engineering. Network, Communications and Applied Information Technologies. Technologies in Energy and Power, Cell, Engines, Generators, Electric Vehicles. System Test and Diagnosis, Monitoring and Identification, Video and Image Processing. Applied and Computational Mathematics, Methods, Algorithms and Optimization. Technologies in Electrical and Electronic, Control and Automation. Industrial Production, Manufacturing, Management and Logistics.

Intrusion Detection Systems has long been considered the most important reference for intrusion detection system equipment and implementation. In this revised and expanded edition, it goes even further in providing the reader with a better understanding of how to design an integrated system. The book describes the basic operating principles and applications of the equipment in an easy to understand manner. This book was written for those security directors, consultants, and companies that select the equipment or make critical decisions about security systems design. Mr. Barnard provides sufficient detail to satisfy the needs of those interested in the technical principles, yet has included enough description on the operation and application of these systems to make Intrusion Detection Systems, Second Edition a useful reference for any security professional.

How far would or should you go to feel secure? While everyone wants safety and security, the measures to achieve it are often viewed of as intrusive, unwanted, a hassle, and limiting to personal and professional freedoms. Yet, when an incident occurs, we can never have enough security. Security Management for Occupational Safety provides a framewor

Electric, Electronic and Control Engineering contains the contributions presented at the 2015 International Conference on Electric, Electronic and Control Engineering (ICEECE 2015, Phuket Island, Thailand, 5-6 March 2015). The book is divided into four main topics: - Electric and Electronic Engineering - Mechanic and Control Engineering - Informati
