Implementing AI in Electrical Applications— Part 2 by Michael Morris

William Attardi on August 9, 2025

From the EC&M e-books library: How the industry is responding to data center challenges, influx in electrical grid demand, and artificial intelligence. For this e-book, we’ve collected a selection of articles that further explores different ways artificial intelligence (AI) is impacting the electrical industry. This article looks at how new technology, specifically AI, will increase demands on data centers and how electrical engineers are working to ensure data centers can meet these demands. Building off that theme, the next articles look at the relationship between data centers, AI, and the electrical grid.

Implementing AI in Electrical Applications— Part 1 by Michael Morris

William Attardi on March 17, 2025

From the EC&M e-books library: How the industry is incorporating artificial intelligence into the electrical space.  Ever since the rise of ChatGPT in November 2022, artificial intelligence (AI) has been unavoidable. Just about every industry is developing ways to incorporate AI into their field, and the electrical industry is no different. EC&M has followed the rise of AI in order to keep our readers informed on how the technology is impacting the electrical industry. This content has been immensely popular, so we decided to collect some of the best articles into our first e-book of 2025. The topic of artificial intelligence and its role in the electrical industry is such an important and rapidly evolving one that we decided we’ll need two e-books to do it justice. Stay tuned for “Implementing AI in Electrical Applications — Part 2” releasing later in 2025.  67d1dc96c1db52f96511aefc-ecm_ebook_implementing_ai (1).pdf

Telling Time – 12-hour time is a very ancient system that traces back to the Mesopotamian empires. They had a cultural fixation with the number 12, used a base-12 numerical system, and divided up most things into 12ths whenever possible – including day and night. The 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night system spread throughout Europe and the Middle East and has defied multiple attempts to change it over the centuries. Also, for anyone curious as to why there was such a love of the number 12, it was because that was how they counted on their hand. Look at your hand. Notice how each of your fingers minus your thumb has three easily identifiable parts to it. They used to count by using their thumb to count each part of the finger, much in the same way we count to 10 using our fingers today. So, 12 was the max you could count on one hand.
