  2. Ground and neutral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_and_neutral

    A ground connection that is missing or of inadequate capacity may not provide the protective functions as intended during a fault in the connected equipment. Extra connections between ground and circuit neutral may result in circulating current in the ground path, stray current introduced in the earth or in a structure, and stray voltage.

  3. Utility pole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_pole

    In many places, as seen in the illustration, providers of electricity, television, telephone, street light, traffic signal and other services share poles, either in joint ownership or by renting space to each other. In the United States, ANSI standard 05.1.2008 [19] governs wood pole sizes and strength

  4. Ground (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)

    Long-distance electromagnetic telegraph systems from 1820 onwards [a] used two or more wires to carry the signal and return currents. It was discovered by German scientist C.A. von Steinheil in 1836–1837, that the ground could be used as the return path to complete the circuit, making the return wire unnecessary. [2]

    The most common of these was the three-pin XLR connector (also called cannon jack in some countries). When DMX512 was ratified, many of these manufacturers then issued firmware updates to enable the use of DMX512 control on their existing equipment by the use of a simple adapter to and from the standard 5-pin XLR style connector.

  6. Pin header - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_header

    1×6 pin header (one row) 1×6 female header (one row) A pin header (or simply, header) is a form of electrical connector. A male pin header consists of one or more rows of metal pins molded into a plastic base, often 2.54 mm (0.1 in) apart, though available in many spacings. [1] Male pin headers are cost-effective due to their simplicity.

  7. Europlug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europlug

    In 1989 a new version was designed to be compatible with the Europlug. Newer sockets have 4.5 mm holes with centres spaced 19 mm apart. The minimum distance between the holes is thus 14.5 mm, while the minimum distance between the converged pins on the Europlug is 13.5 mm, allowing it to grip the socket despite its smaller pin width.

  9. ISO standards for trailer connectors - Wikipedia

    The 5-pin has a design and pin layout that is identical to the 7-pin ISO 1724 connector with the exception for the lack of pin 1 (L) and pin 4 (R). This connector is sometimes present on vintage vehicles and the actual wiring may be completely different from what the standard states which means that measuring before connecting is a good idea.
