    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminum_building_wiring

    Aluminum building wiring is a type of electrical wiring for residential construction or houses that uses aluminum electrical conductors. Aluminum provides a better conductivity-to-weight ratio than copper, and therefore is also used for wiring power grids , including overhead power transmission lines and local power distribution lines , as well ...

    Crash bar doors in a school, with upper vertical rod latches. A crash bar (also known as a panic exit device, panic bar, or bump bar) [1] [2] is a type of door opening mechanism which allows users to open a door by pushing a bar.

  5. Mu-metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu-metal

    Mu-metal shields for cathode-ray tubes (CRTs) used in oscilloscopes, from a 1945 electronics magazine. Mu-metal is a soft magnetic alloy with exceptionally high magnetic permeability. The high permeability of mu-metal provides a low reluctance path for magnetic flux, leading to its use in magnetic shields against static or slowly varying ...

  6. Nuclear reactor safety system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_reactor_safety_system

    The device contains a quantity of metal designed to melt, diluting the corium and increasing its heat conductivity; the diluted metallic mass could then be cooled by water circulating in the floor. Today, all new Russian-designed reactors are equipped with core-catchers in the bottom of the containment building. [12]

  7. Magnet keeper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet_keeper

    A "horseshoe magnet" made of Alnico 5, about 1 inch high.The metal bar (bottom) is a keeper. A magnet keeper, also known historically as an armature, is a bar made from magnetically soft iron or steel, which is placed across the poles of a permanent magnet to help preserve the strength of the magnet by completing the magnetic circuit; it is important for magnets that have low magnetic ...

  8. Electromagnetic lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_lock

    A "fail safe" magnetic lock requires power to remain locked and typically is not suitable for high security applications, because it is possible to disable the lock by disrupting the power supply. Despite this, by adding a magnetic bond sensor to the lock and by using a power supply that includes a battery backup capability, some specialized ...

  9. Power system protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_system_protection

    Switches are safe to open under normal load current (some switches are not safe to operate under normal or abnormal conditions), while protective devices are safe to open under fault current. Very important equipment may have completely redundant and independent protective systems, while a minor branch distribution line may have very simple low ...
