  2. Inrush current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inrush_current

    For example, wall switches intended to control incandescent lamps will have a "T" rating, indicating that they can safely control circuits with the large inrush currents of incandescent lamps. The inrush may be as much as 14 times the steady-state current and may persist for a few milliseconds for smaller lamps up to several seconds for lamps ...

  4. Impedance matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_matching

    For example, in order to match an inductive load into a real impedance, a capacitor needs to be used. If the load impedance becomes capacitive, the matching element must be replaced by an inductor. In many cases, there is a need to use the same circuit to match a broad range of load impedance and thus simplify the circuit design.

  5. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    An inductive load consists of an iron-core reactive element which, when used in conjunction with a resistive load bank, creates a lagging power factor load. Typically, the inductive load will be rated at a numeric value 75% that of the corresponding resistive load such that when applied together a resultant 0.8 power factor load is provided.

  6. Inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    Inductive reactance is the opposition of an inductor to an alternating current. [21] It is defined analogously to electrical resistance in a resistor, as the ratio of the amplitude (peak value) of the alternating voltage to current in the component = = Reactance has units of ohms.

    UT's Blake Burke appeared to swing and miss strike three to give FSU the CWS win. The third-base ump ruled differently, helping the Vols to a controversial win.

  8. Inductive coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_coupling

    Low-frequency induction can be a dangerous form of inductive coupling when it happens inadvertently. For example, if a long-distance metal pipeline is installed along a right of way in parallel with a high-voltage power line, the power line can induce current on the pipe. Since the pipe is a conductor, insulated by its protective coating from ...
