“…Marijuana is a psychotropic substance, as some of its effects include alterations in sensory perception, euphoria, relaxation, impaired memory, concentration, coordination, and changes in blood pressure (Owen et al, 2018). Kavak et al (2019) reports conjunctival redness, increased appetite, dry mouth, and tachycardia or lowered heart rate as symptoms of cannabisinduced intoxication. According to Adrian (2015), the risk of users being involved in a motor vehicle accident increases approximately twofold after smoking marijuana as cannabis can lead to cognitive impairment, lane-weaving, and poor reaction times.…”

Given the 2018 decriminalization of marijuana in South Africa for personal use and medicinal consumption, the aim of this research was to explore the perceptions of university students regarding the use, impact, legalization, and decriminalization of marijuana. Key findings revealed that a fair number of participants acknowledged using marijuana. When asked about the potential impact of marijuana on users, their families and significant others, they seemed to have a good understanding of the effects of the drug. However, while some participants were aware of the addictive nature of marijuana, others were not aware of the risk of addiction from smoking or ingesting this substance. However, they were able to weigh up the risks as well as the benefits of legalization/decriminalization of marijuana. This study has implications for health care professionals working with youth who use illicit substances such as marijuana, and in developing prevention and intervention programs aimed at the youth.

“…Illicit substance use, misuse, and addiction are major public health problems worldwide (Kavak et al, 2019). Marijuana is a widely grown, readily available and accessible drug and is the most commonly used illicit substance in South Africa, with heavy use leading to negative consequences (Phillips et al, 2017).…”

“…In that case, another transformer with the same technical specifications can operate parallel with the existing transformer to meet the demand. Transformers can take 5-6 months to produce, and 2-3 months to repair [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. A transformer operating integrated into the system may be subject to a major failure.…”

The safety of the electrical energy supply is one of the most critical issues for companies engaged in production. The internal distribution network, which will provide the energy for the production elements, is essential. Power Transformers, which energize the loads fed from the electricity distribution network, are backed up in a way suitable for parallel operation for energy supply security. As a result of this situation, in case of a predictive failure in one of the transformers, energy supply safety is ensured since the other transformer is designed to carry the load alone. When one of these identical transformers is damaged, the relative short-circuit voltage of the new transformer to be integrated into the system may be different. The transformers with different short-circuit voltages are not shared their load equally. For this reason, the total amount of load that they can be loaded, the relative short-circuit voltage that will occur, and the load rates they are loaded change. In this study, a detailed analysis of two transformers with different relative short-circuit voltages and operating in parallel was made, both theoretically and as a result of the application, with the information obtained through the SCADA program. The theoretical values were calculated as a result of the analysis, the SCADA values were compared, and the margin of safety between them was established. It has been shown that the safety margin will protect against overload on a low short-circuit transformer. After the commissioning, the load rating needs to check and it can be regulated in line with the load rates that will occur after commissioning.
