  2. Galvanostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanostat

    A galvanostat (also known as amperostat) is a control and measuring device capable of keeping the current through an electrolytic cell in coulometric titrations constant, disregarding changes in the load itself. Its main feature is its nearly "infinite" (i.e. extremely high in respect to common loads) internal resistance.

  3. 25-pair color code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/25-pair_color_code

    The wire pairs are referenced directly by their color combination, or by the pair number. For example, pair 9 is also called the red-brown pair. In technical tabulations, the colors are often suitably abbreviated. Violet is the standard name in the telecommunications and electronics industry, but it is sometimes referred to as purple.

    However, the manufacturer's instructions for the Ideal no. 65 Twister [19] only recommends pre-twisting the wires, and does not state it is required. Also, the instructions do not mention physically abrading the wires as recommended by the CPSC, although the manufacturer current literature states the pre-filled "compound cuts aluminum oxide".

    If colored white, it typically may be used for splicing neutral wires in a device box, while leaving a pigtail free for connection to a device (such as a receptacle). If colored green, the assembly is intended to be used as a grounding pigtail, similar to the feedthrough twist-on wire connectors without a permanently-attached wire.

  6. Cable barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_barrier

    A cable barrier, sometimes referred to as guard cable or wire rope safety barrier (WRSB), is a type of roadside or median safety traffic barrier/guard rail. It consists of steel wire ropes mounted on weak posts.

  7. Optical ground wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_ground_wire

    An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) is a type of cable that is used in overhead power lines. Such cable combines the functions of grounding and communications .

    Their wires were led through holes to the underside or interior. The ends of lengths of wire or wire-ended components such as capacitors and resistors were pushed through the terminals, and usually looped and twisted. When all wires to be connected had been fitted to the terminal, they were soldered together (and to the terminal).

  9. Potentiostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentiostat

    A potentiostat is a control and measuring device. It comprises an electric circuit which controls the potential across the cell by sensing changes in its resistance, varying accordingly the current supplied to the system: a higher resistance will result in a decreased current, while a lower resistance will result in an increased current, in order to keep the voltage constant as described by ...
