  2. Isolated ground - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolated_ground

    An isolated ground (IG) (or Functional Earth (FE) in European literature) is a ground connection to a local earth electrode from equipment where the main supply uses a different earthing arrangement, one of the common earthing arrangements used with domestic mains supplies.

  3. Electrical isolation test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_isolation_test

    Common Chassis Ground – isolation between circuit common and chassis (chassis grounded). Isolated Circuit Common – isolation between circuit common and chassis (chassis floating). Isolation measurements are made with the assembly or subsystem unpowered and disconnected from any support equipment.

  4. Ride height - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ride_height

    Ride height or ground clearance is the amount of space between the base of an automobile tire and the lowest point of the automobile, typically the bottom exterior of the differential housing (even though the lower shock mounting point may be lower); or, more properly, to the shortest distance between a flat, level surface, and the lowest part ...

  5. Floating ground - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating_ground

    A floating ground is a reference point for electrical potential in a circuit which is galvanically isolated from actual earth ground. Most electrical circuits have a ground which is electrically connected to the Earth, hence the name "ground". The ground is said to be floating when this connection does not exist. [1]

  6. Ground (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)

    The use of the term ground (or earth) is so common in electrical and electronics applications that circuits in portable electronic devices, such as cell phones and media players, as well as circuits in vehicles, may be spoken of as having a "ground" or chassis ground connection without any actual connection to the Earth, despite "common" being ...

  7. Vehicle frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_frame

    Ladder frame pickup truck chassis holds the vehicle's engine, drivetrain, suspension, and wheels The unibody - for the unitized body - is also a form of a frame. A vehicle frame, also historically known as its chassis, is the main supporting structure of a motor vehicle to which all other components are attached, comparable to the skeleton of an organism.

  8. 19-inch rack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/19-inch_rack

    Road case racks come in different heights based on the 1U standard and different depths. Non-isolated cases simply mount 19-inch mounting posts inside the case. To protect equipment from shock and vibration road rack cases use an inner and outer case. These cases can be isolated by thick layers of foam or may use spring-loaded shock mounting.

  9. Chassis ground - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chassis_ground

    A chassis ground is a link between different metallic parts of a machine to ensure an electrical connection between them. [1] Examples include electronic instruments and motor vehicles. Usages
