  3. EnOcean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enocean

    In November 2007, MK Electric, the manufacturer of consumer electrical fitments in the UK, adopted EnOcean technology for a wireless switches. However, pricing was far beyond the cost of providing traditional switches, so very little traction in 'new build' applications was made. The range is now entirely discontinued. [citation needed]

  4. Radar, Gun Laying, Mk. I and Mk. II - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar,_Gun_Laying,_Mk._I...

    The first mention of radar in the UK was a 1930 suggestion made by W. A. S. Butement and P. E. Pollard of the Army War Office's Signals Experimental Establishment (SEE). [1] [2] They proposed building a radar system for detecting ships to be used with shore batteries, and went so far as to build a low-power breadboard prototype using pulses at 50 cm wavelength (600 MHz).

  5. Milton Keynes grid road system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milton_Keynes_grid_road_system

    The grid system is made up of 11 roads aligned roughly north–south and 10 aligned roughly east–west. In early planning documents, these were simply designated as "V roads" and "H roads" respectively (for "vertical", roughly north–south, and "horizontal", roughly East/West); these designations have remained popular alongside the subsequent formal (conventional) names.

  6. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...

  7. Number One Electronic Switching System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_One_Electronic...

    The voice switching fabric plan was similar to that of the earlier 5XB switch in being bidirectional and in using the call-back principle. [clarification needed] [citation needed] The largest full-access matrix switches (the 12A line grids had partial access) in the system, however, were 8x8 rather than 10x10 or 20x16.

  8. North American power transmission grid - Wikipedia

    The electrical power grid that powers Northern America is not a single grid, but is instead divided into multiple wide area synchronous grids. [1] The Eastern Interconnection and the Western Interconnection are the largest. Three other regions include the Texas Interconnection, the Quebec Interconnection, and the Alaska Interconnection.

    The MK5000C is a 5,000 hp (3.7 MW) North American diesel-electric locomotive developed by MK Rail.At the time of its introduction in 1994, the MK5000C was the most powerful single prime mover diesel-electric locomotive ever made, a title it would hold for only for one year until GE Transportation released its competing 6,000 hp (4.5 MW) AC6000CW model in 1995.
