  2. Electrical conductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_conductor

    where is the length of the conductor, measured in metres [m], A is the cross-section area of the conductor measured in square metres [m 2], σ is the electrical conductivity measured in siemens per meter (S·m −1), and ρ is the electrical resistivity (also called specific electrical resistance) of the material, measured in ohm-metres (Ω·m ...

  3. Node (circuits) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(circuits)

    Each color in the circuit represents one node.. In electrical engineering, a node is any region on a circuit between two circuit elements.In circuit diagrams, connections are ideal wires with zero resistance, so a node consists of the entire section of wire between elements, not just a single point.

  4. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    A circuit diagram (or: wiring diagram, electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic schematic) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations ...

  5. Charge carrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_carrier

    In n-type semiconductors, electrons in the conduction band move through the crystal, resulting in an electric current. In some conductors, such as ionic solutions and plasmas, positive and negative charge carriers coexist, so in these cases an electric current consists of the two types of carrier moving in opposite directions.

  6. List of electrical phenomena - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_electrical_phenomena

    Electroluminescence — The phenomenon wherein a material emits light in response to an electric current passed through it, or to a strong electric field. Electrostatic induction — Redistribution of charges in a conductor inside an external static electric field, such as when a charged object is brought close.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_device

    Electrical equipment part of the distribution system in a large building. Electrical equipment includes any machine powered by electricity. It usually consists of an enclosure, a variety of electrical components, and often a power switch. Examples of these include: Lighting; Major appliance; Small appliances; IT equipment (computers, printers etc.)
