    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premier_Farnell

    In 2010, the legacy brands of Premier Electronics, Farnell and Farnell-Newark were replaced by Farnell element14 in Europe, and by Newark element14 in the US. The name was taken from silicon, the 14th element in the Periodic Table, which is widely used in electronic components such as integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors. [18]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_switch

    An early switch operating by this principle was invented by Chester I. Hall of the General Electric Company, with a patent filed in 1921 and approved in 1924.Like the modern infinite switch, Hall's invention used a bi-metallic strip, heated by a constant current, to break a connection after a given period of time.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_cutoff

    Thermal switches on microprocessors often stop only the fetching of instructions to execute, reducing the clock rate to zero until a lower temperature is reached, while maintaining power to the cache to prevent data loss (although a second switch, with a higher triggering temperature, usually turns off even the cache and forces the computer to ...

    Many accessories for electrical installations (e.g., wall sockets, switches) sold in the UK are designed to fit into the mounting boxes defined in BS 4662:2006—Boxes for flush mounting of electrical accessories—Requirements, test methods and dimensions, with an 86 mm × 86 mm square face plate that is fixed to the rest of the enclosure by ...

  6. Thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

    Pneumatic thermostats typically provide output/ branch/ post-restrictor (for single-pipe operation) pressures of 3-15 psi which is piped to the end device (valve/ damper actuator/ pneumatic-electric switch, etc.). [11] The pneumatic thermostat was invented by Warren Johnson in 1895 [12] soon after he invented the electric thermostat.

  7. Programmable thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmable_thermostat

    Honeywell electronic thermostat in a store. Heating and cooling losses from a building (or any other container) become greater as the difference in temperature increases. A programmable thermostat allows reduction of these losses by allowing the temperature difference to be reduced at times when the reduced amount of heating or cooling would not be objectionable.
