Is this an either/or question, or a "Should I do this or not" question? What would make the most sense would be to install your heat source as close to the floor and as far from the door as possible. Since the heat rises, this would provide the most efficient heating of the room while preventing the loss of heat from drafts by the doorway.

What is a data concentrator unit and how and should you install it?

A phasor measurement unit, also sometimes referred to as a super phasor data concentrator, is a device that is used to measure electrical waves. How you should install this device depends entirely upon what item you are connecting it to and what types of electrical wave data you are trying to measure.


What is temperature of heating element how to measure it if we know applied voltage or current. Is the temperature said to be even?

When talking of heating elements in the electrical trade the unit of watts is used. The higher the wattage value of the device the higher its temperature output. Heating cables are measured in watts per foot as a way of measuring their heat output. The equation to find wattage of a device is to multiply the voltage of the device times the amperage of the device as stated on the device's nameplate or tag. In most cases the temperature is linear throughout the length of the heating element. The actual temperature can be tested by using a laser spot temperature test instrument.

What is the normal rotation of a fan?

Not all fans do that. Some are also reversible. Also the direction of turning is opposite if you observe from the opposite side.A bit more:On ceiling fans, they are made to be reversed for a reason, so the blades can either pull the air up or push it down. For example, on mine, with the way the blades are tilted, when it goes clockwise, it pulls the air up, pulling the warmer air upwards. When I flip the switch to reverse the direction to counter clockwise, the blades push the air downwards.For home ceiling fans, the air should be moving down in the summer time. In the winter time when the home heating unit is being used, the air should be drawn up to the ceiling. This causes a flow pattern that circulates up through the fan to the ceiling, across the ceiling and down the walls to the floor where it gets drawn back up to the ceiling. This rotational pattern draws the warm air from the ceiling and redistributes it to the floor where you can sense the warmth.


Can you install a receptacle that is rated for 240 volts to a 277 volt line?

No, the receptacle's rating is 240 volt and that is the maximum voltage allow to be applied to that device. To prevent this condition from happening 277 volt receptacles and switches have a larger box that they fit into. The retaining screws are set apart further that a 240 volt device which makes it impossible to install a 240 volt device in a 277 volt junction box.
