ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS????

Jay Slough - Thursday, November 19, 2009

ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS????
 
Flip the switch up, but no lights come on
Where oh where has my
electrician gone

The TV has static
the computer shut down
Now my outlet is
dark colored brown.
 
I can’t blow dry my hair
while the TV is on
Or the breaker will blow
and it too will be gone
 
I have a took kit
and I guess I should face it
my electrician is the only one
who I think should replace it
 
I would love to find
someone I could trust.
So I won’t be left with some kind
of radioactive dust.
 
I need somewhere to go
without a lot of fuss…
I know, I think I’ll call
Power Plus

A few minutes later…………
 
They have solved the problem
Oh can't you see
Now I can turn on,
turn on my TV
 
I have some new wires and
new gadgets around
To make my house fun and
turn my frown upside down
 
So if you have a problem
a problem you see
Call Power Plus and
do the same as Me.

Hold on to your hats….it’s about to get Windy

Jay Slough - Thursday, November 19, 2009

The Power of wind

Wind is created when the sun heats a specific area of the land; in turn, the air surrounding this area absorbs some of the heat. Since hot air is lighter than cold air, the heated air rises. In turn, the hot air rising allows cold air to fill the gap; hence, the cold air rushing in causes wind.
 
Wind Power is much cheaper than almost all types of other power. If you are able to find an efficient location the energy you cultivate from the wind generator can be golden. Of course, the biggest factor for most people nowadays is the tremendous environmental benefit of replacing traditional energy producers with generators. Wind generators are extremely environmentally friendly, as no pollutants are created by harnessing wind power. Wind generators are beginning to become a trendy choice to show one's environmentally conscious lifestyle and their proactive personalities.
 
Windmills have been around for 1,300 years, first used in ancient Persia to grind grain. In the United States windmills are part of the classic American Western landscape, and today, high tech wind turbines have become a source of clean renewable electrical energy.

Modern wind turbines
using advanced technologies are able to produce electricity for homes, businesses , and even utilities. A wind turbine consists of three major parts: rotor blades, shaft, and the generator. The rotor blades are like the sails of the system. By creating a barrier against the wind the wind forces them to spin. When air moves quickly, the particles are moving quickly. Hence, wind energy can be captured in a wind-electric turbine, just as moving water can be captured via a hydroelectric dam. The shaft is connected to the middle of the rotor; in turn, when the rotor blades spin they cause the shaft to spin. When its movement causes the rotation of blades on a wind turbine we are using kinetic energy.

California produces more electricity from wind than any other state. And even though California's wind turbines do not operate year round (winds must be blowing at least twelve miles per hour to generate electricity), California's wind turbines generate enough electricity to power a city the size of San Francisco for a year.
 
Wind energy is free, renewable and causes no pollution. Depending on a person's circumstances, equipment like a wind turbine and a tower can be installed to put wind power to work reducing or eliminating electric bills.

Solar Pumps adapting to your needs.

Jay Slough - Tuesday, November 03, 2009

What are solar pumps, and how can they work for me?
 
Solar pumps are easy to set up and free to operate. They provide for a variety of different water applications such as drainage, emergency water needs, environmental remediation, simple landscaping, private homes, villages, medical clinics, etc. A water pump can be powered by its own PV array, or by a main system that powers lights and appliances.
 
Solar water pumps are superior for the environment than other water pump options. Using electricity powered by the sun does not release harmful emissions into the atmosphere and does not deplete non-renewable resources.
 
What if the sun is not out?
Any renewable energy source can make the electricity you need to power appliances, including pumps. Solar electric cells convert sunlight into DC electricity that can be routed directly to DC appliances, or can be stored in batteries for use when the sun is not shining, or can be inverted into AC electricity to power AC appliances.

So you see, there are opportunities to harness the power of the sun through solar water pumps and get the water you need without the extra cost. Power Plus proves time and time again they can beat the competition when it comes to price, quality, and most importantly, service.
