Feeder busway is used to interconnect equipment, such as between a transformer and a switchgear line up. A variant type is a low-impedance busway, which is designed to have lower voltage drop by virtue of close spacing of bus bars, which reduces inductive reactance. A trolley busway provides power to equipment that must be frequently moved.
If the indicator has too low an impedance it will disturb the standing wave on the line, so a high impedance indicator must be used; a regular incandescent bulb has too low a resistance. Lecher and early researchers used long thin Geissler tubes , laying the glass tube directly across the line.
Metal electrodes are made of various types of metals, typically silicon, platinum, and tungsten. They "resemble a leaky electrolytic capacitor, having a very high low-frequency impedance and low high-frequency impedance". [30] They are more suitable for measurement of extracellular action potentials, although glass micropipettes can also be used.
Negative resistance (voltage controlled) oscillator: Since VCNR ("N" type) devices require a low impedance bias and are stable for load impedances less than r, [103] the ideal oscillator circuit for this device has the form shown at top right, with a voltage source V bias to bias the device into its negative resistance region, and parallel ...
Faraday was the first to publish the results of his experiments. [5] [6] Faraday's 1831 demonstration [7] Faraday's notebook on August 29, 1831 [8] describes an experimental demonstration of electromagnetic induction (see figure) [9] that wraps two wires around opposite sides of an iron ring (like a modern toroidal transformer).
The electrometer changes this "high impedance signal" to a "low impedance signal" by using a voltage follower circuit. A voltage follower reads the voltage on the input (caused by a small current through a big resistor). It then instructs a parallel circuit that has a large current source behind it (the electrical mains) and adjusts the ...
A small demonstration Marx generator (tower on the right).It is a ten stage generator. The main discharge is on the left. The nine smaller sparks that can be seen in the image are the spark gaps that connect the charged capacitors in series.
The input impedance of an infinite line is equal to the characteristic impedance since the transmitted wave is never reflected back from the end. Equivalently: The characteristic impedance of a line is that impedance which, when terminating an arbitrary length of line at its output, produces an input impedance of equal value. This is so because ...
