  2. Electromagnetic compatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_compatibility

    In order to access the interior, such a housing is typically made in sections (such as a box and lid); an RF gasket may be used at the joints to reduce the amount of interference that leaks through. RF gaskets come in various types. A plain metal gasket may be either braided wire or a flat strip slotted to create many springy "fingers".

  3. Pressure-tolerant electronics - Wikipedia

    non-PTE Connectors: All: None Resistors: Carbon film, metal film, wire wound, tin oxide: Carbon comp. Capacitors: Ceramic, film, solid tantalum: Aluminum electrolytic, wet-slug tantalum, paper Relays and contactors: Open (operation is significantly slower) Sealed Semiconductors: Epoxy enclosed: Metal can Crystals-Surface mount or metal can ...

  4. Wired logic connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wired_logic_connection

    Open-emitter buffers connected as wired OR. See also: Diode logic § Active-high OR logic gate. The wired OR connection electrically performs the Boolean logic operation of an OR gate using open emitter or similar inputs (which can be identified by the ⎏ symbol in schematics) connected to a shared output with a pull-down resistor. This gate ...

  5. Metal expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_expansion_joint

    If pressure is applied to the outside of the metal bellows of axial expansion joints, the expansion joints permit very large axial movements in case of internal pressure in a pipeline. Because there is no danger of buckling when an external overpressure is applied, the creator of the metal expansion joint was by a professor called Joshua Yap.

  6. Superconducting wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superconducting_wire

    Often the tubes are heated to react the mix of powders. Once reacted the tubes are sometimes flattened to form a tape-like conductor. The resulting wire is not as flexible as conventional metal wire, but is sufficient for many applications. There are in situ and ex situ variants of the process, as well a 'double core' method that combines both ...

  7. NEMA contact ratings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_contact_ratings

    NEMA contact ratings are how much current at a rated voltage a relay or other pilot device can switch. The current rating of smaller NEMA contactors or their auxiliaries are defined by NEMA ICS 5: Industrial Control and Systems, Control Circuit and Pilot Devices [1] standard. The nomenclature is a letter followed by a three-digit number, the ...

  8. Ground and neutral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_and_neutral

    This practice arose from the three-wire system used to supply both 120 volt and 240 volt loads. Because these listed appliances often have components that use either 120, or both 120 and 240 volts, there is often some current on the neutral wire. This differs from the protective grounding wire, which only carries current under fault conditions.

  9. Volatile corrosion inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volatile_corrosion_inhibitor

    Emitter – VCI in the form of a capsule, foam, cup, etc., is placed within an electrical cabinet, junction box, etc., to provide corrosion protection to the various components inside the box. VCI emitters also provide best protection against H2S, SO2 , ammonia & humidity, It is mostly use in electrical components because it does not affect ...
