The line at the top of the list of Questions is currently:

**General Q&A about the design and function of electronic and electric power systems, their theory, and tools specific to those fields.**

As I suggested for the recent Codidact update email, I think "power systems" is not really the right terminology here. As currently phrased, the emphasis appears to be **specifically** things like:

* Power supply design
* Power transmission (generating plant to end-user)
* Power generation - e.g., solar panels, wind turbines, etc.
* Batteries

All of that is included in this community, but so are **many** other things - components for all electronic systems (resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, integrated circuits, switches, etc.), design of microcontroller based systems, radio frequency issues (generation, detection, communication), and **much, much more**.

I don't know what the best replacement phrase, as I am not a key person here (my participation here is likely to be similar to on EE SE - lurk a lot, post rarely, as I don't consider myself a topic-matter expert). It might be as simple as dropping "power" from the phrase.
