Biography

This paper presents Power Line Communication (PLC) technology as an efficient means of knowledge sharing among corporate organizations in the power industry. The study considered power system organisational relationship in the conceptual view of knowledge management (KM). National grid system is underutilised in the view of organisational applications in communication system. A designed process could be initiated to address the gap of underutilisation of PLC technology.

Apena WO, Ale TO, Oyetunji SA and Ihiabe YA

Electrical earthing design surge protection relies on accurate determination of soil resistivity down the vertical soil profile. The study investigated soil resistivity of a rocky region in Ile-Ife, Nigeria, were wenner method claimed to be failed. Pole-pole and Schlumberger electrode configurations method were deployed and electrical resistivity (ER) methods involving both horizontal profiling (HP) and Vertical Electrical Resistivity (VES) using an intelligent machine – ABM 300 C. Measurements were made along seven traverses to revealed soil resistivity variation in the region. Forty-eight VES stations were occupied along the traverse using the Schlumberger array with electrodes spacing of (AB/2) varying from 1 to 60 m. The vertical electrical soundin... view moreĀ»
