[ Electricity and Electronics ]

I confess I wouldn’t expect a pipeline engineer to know much about electricity and electronics.   But, it’s one of the (optional) core competencies in our list of 240, so, here we are.  Some pipeline engineers might know the basics around voltage, current and power. 

It does make me wonder how many of us who work with pipelines have deep electrical/electronics knowledge.  I think it’s not typical, so if you’re one of them, you’re a bit unique.  I’d be interested in knowing what circumstances as a pipeline engineer (not designing stations, I get that application) where deep electrical expertise is utilised.
