  2. 6L6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6L6

    The metal tube technology utilized for the 6L6 had been developed by General Electric and introduced in April 1935, with RCA manufacturing the metal envelope tubes for GE at that time. [8] Some of the advantages of metal tube construction over glass envelope tubes were smaller size, ruggedness, electromagnetic shielding and smaller ...

    TransTube Series 112, made in US (2000–2004) ... an enhanced line of Vypyr amps was released. Called the "Vypyr VIP" series (short for "variable instrument input ...

  4. Electrical steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_steel

    Amorphous steel is limited to foils of about 50 μm thickness. The mechanical properties of amorphous steel make stamping laminations for electric motors difficult. Since amorphous ribbon can be cast to any specific width under roughly 13 inches and can be sheared with relative ease, it is a suitable material for wound electrical transformer cores.

  5. Knob-and-tube wiring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knob-and-tube_wiring

    Ceramic bushings protected each wire entering a metal device box, when such an enclosure was used. Loom, a woven flexible insulating sleeve, was slipped over insulated wire to provide additional protection whenever a wire passed over or under another wire, when a wire entered a metal device enclosure, and in other situations prescribed by code.

  6. Amorphous metal transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amorphous_metal_transformer

    An amorphous metal transformer (AMT) is a type of energy efficient transformer found on electric grids. [1] The magnetic core of this transformer is made with a ferromagnetic amorphous metal . The typical material ( Metglas ) is an alloy of iron with boron , silicon , and phosphorus in the form of thin (e.g. 25 μm) foils rapidly cooled from melt.

  7. Overhead power line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_power_line

    The bare wire conductors on the line are generally made of aluminum [1] (either plain or reinforced with steel, or composite materials such as carbon and glass fiber), though some copper wires are used in medium-voltage distribution and low-voltage connections to customer premises.

  8. Wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire

    Wire-cloth of all degrees of strength and fineness of mesh is used for sifting and screening machinery, for draining paper pulp, for window screens, and for many other purposes. Vast quantities of aluminium, copper, nickel and steel wire are employed for telephone and data cables, and as conductors in electric power transmission, and heating.

  9. Valve amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_amplifier

    6N3C power tube. A valve amplifier or tube amplifier is a type of electronic amplifier that uses vacuum tubes to increase the amplitude or power of a signal.Low to medium power valve amplifiers for frequencies below the microwaves were largely replaced by solid state amplifiers in the 1960s and 1970s.
