  2. Automotive fuse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_fuse

    The Lucas 1/4" diameter glass tube fuse have a different length as compared to the standard US item. The Lucas 1/4" diameter glass tube fuse is 1 + 5 ⁄ 32 in (29 mm) long, while the US standard 1/4" glass tube fuse is 1 + 1 ⁄ 4 in (32 mm)] long. However, many Lucas fuse holders permit the longer US version to be installed easily.

  3. Anti-roll bar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-roll_bar

    An anti-sway or anti-roll bar is intended to reduce the lateral tilt (roll) of the vehicle on curves, sharp corners, or large bumps. Although there are many variations in design, the object is to induce a vehicle's body to remain as level as possible by forcing the opposite wheel's shock absorber , spring, or suspension rod in the same ...

  4. Fuse cutout - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuse_cutout

    In electrical distribution, a fuse cutout or cut-out fuse (often referred to as a cutout) is a combination of a fuse and a switch, used in primary overhead feeder lines and taps to protect distribution transformers from current surges and overloads. An overcurrent caused by a fault in the transformer or customer circuit will cause the fuse to ...

  5. Drilling stabilizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling_stabilizer

    Integral drilling stabilizer with tungsten carbide bricks (TCB) hardfacing. A drilling stabilizer is a piece of downhole equipment used in the bottom hole assembly (BHA) of a drill string. It mechanically stabilizes the BHA in the borehole in order to avoid unintentional sidetracking, vibrations, and ensure the quality of the hole being drilled.

  6. Torsion bar suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_bar_suspension

    One end of a long metal bar is attached firmly to the vehicle chassis; the opposite end terminates in a lever, the torsion key, mounted perpendicular to the bar, that is attached to a suspension arm, a spindle, or the axle. Vertical motion of the wheel causes the bar to twist around its axis and is resisted by the bar's torsion resistance. The ...

  7. Active Stabilizer Suspension System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Stabilizer...

    The active stabilizer system relies on vehicle body sensors and electric motors. The first production usage of this system was introduced in August 2005 with the Lexus GS430 sport sedan, [1] followed by the 2008 Lexus LS 600h luxury sedan. The development of APSSS is claimed to be the world's first electric active stabilizer system. [2]

  8. Distribution board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_board

    A distribution board (also known as panelboard, circuit breaker panel, breaker panel, electric panel, fuse box or DB box) is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure.

  9. Bottom hole assembly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottom_hole_assembly

    Rotary assemblies [2] are commonly used where formations are predictable and the rig economics are an issue. In such an assembly the weight of the drill collars gives the BHA the tendency to sag or flex to the low side of the hole, collar stiffness length and stabiliser diameter and placement are engineered as a means of controlling the flex of the BHA.
