  2. Universal testing machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_testing_machine

    Typical lectromechanical Universal Testing Machine Test fixture for three point flex test. A universal testing machine (UTM), also known as a universal tester, [1] universal tensile machine, materials testing machine, materials test frame, is used to test the tensile strength (pulling) and compressive strength (pushing), flexural strength, bending, shear, hardness, and torsion testing ...

  3. Continuity test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_test

    In electronics, a continuity test is the checking of an electric circuit to see if current flows (that it is in fact a complete circuit). A continuity test is performed by placing a small voltage (wired in series with an LED or noise-producing component such as a piezoelectric speaker ) across the chosen path.

  4. Portable appliance testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_appliance_testing

    Using a PAT tester under the following conditions: 12V maximum, test current range 100mA to 200mA - commonly known as "earth continuity test" or "screen test" 12V maximum, test current 10A - commonly known as "routine test" 12V maximum, 1.5 times rated current of appliance or 25A, whichever is greater - commonly known as "type test" or "bond test".

  5. Growler (electrical device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growler_(electrical_device)

    The alternating magnetic flux set up by the growler passes through the windings of the armature coil, generating an alternating voltage in the coil. A short in the coil creates a closed circuit that will act like the secondary coil of a transformer, with the growler acting like the primary coil.

  6. Burst error-correcting code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burst_error-correcting_code

    Proof. We need to prove that if you add a burst of length to a codeword (i.e. to a polynomial that is divisible by ()), then the result is not going to be a codeword (i.e. the corresponding polynomial is not divisible by ()).

  7. Nondestructive testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondestructive_testing

    Because NDT does not permanently alter the article being inspected, it is a highly valuable technique that can save both money and time in product evaluation, troubleshooting, and research. The six most frequently used NDT methods are eddy-current , magnetic-particle , liquid penetrant , radiographic , ultrasonic , and visual testing . [ 3 ]
