  2. Open-circuit voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_voltage

    Open-circuit voltage (abbreviated as OCV or V OC) is the difference of electrical potential between two terminals of an electronic device when disconnected from any circuit. [1] There is no external load connected. No external electric current flows between the terminals.

  3. Open-circuit test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_test

    The open-circuit test, or no-load test, is one of the methods used in electrical engineering to determine the no-load impedance in the excitation branch of a transformer. The no load is represented by the open circuit, which is represented on the right side of the figure as the "hole" or incomplete part of the circuit.

  4. Open circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_circuit

    Open circuit surface-supplied diving equipment, a type of surface-supplied diving equipment where the user breathes from the supplied gas and exhales to the surroundings without recycling the exhaled gas; Open-circuit test, a method used in electrical engineering to determine the impedance in the excitation branch of a real transformer

  5. Electrical fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_fault

    In an electric power system, a fault or fault current is any abnormal electric current. For example, a short circuit is a fault in which a live wire touches a neutral or ground wire. An open-circuit fault occurs if a circuit is interrupted by a failure of a current-carrying wire (phase or neutral) or a blown fuse or circuit breaker.

  6. Open collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_collector

    For NPN open collector outputs, the emitter of the NPN transistor is internally connected to ground, [1] so the NPN open collector internally forms either a short-circuit (technically low impedance or "low-Z") connection to the low voltage (which could be ground) when the transistor is switched on, or an open-circuit (technically high impedance ...

  7. Open-circuit saturation curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_saturation_curve

    The open-circuit saturation curve (also open-circuit characteristic, OCC) of a synchronous generator is a plot of the output open circuit voltage as a function of the excitation current or field. The curve is typically plotted alongside the synchronous impedance curve .

  8. Electrical network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_network

    A simple electric circuit made up of a voltage source and a resistor. Here, =, according to Ohm's law. An electrical network is an interconnection of electrical components (e.g., batteries, resistors, inductors, capacitors, switches, transistors) or a model of such an interconnection, consisting of electrical elements (e.g., voltage sources, current sources, resistances, inductances ...

  9. Stub (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stub_(electronics)

    The free end of the stub is either left open-circuit, or short-circuited (as is always the case for waveguides). Neglecting transmission line losses, the input impedance of the stub is purely reactive ; either capacitive or inductive , depending on the electrical length of the stub, and on whether it is open or short circuit.
