14Transmission line — This article is about the radio frequency transmission line. For the power transmission line, see electric power transmission. In communications and electronic engineering, a transmission line is a specialized cable designed to carry alternating… …
15Power factor — For other uses, see Power factor (pistol). The power factor of an AC electric power system is defined as the ratio of the real power flowing to the load over the apparent power in the circuit,[1][2] and is a dimensionless number between 0 and 1… …
16Transmission electron microscopy — A TEM image of the polio virus. The polio virus is 30 nm in size.[1] Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a microscopy technique whereby a beam of electrons is transmitted through an ultra thin specimen, interacting with the specimen as it… …
17Power cable — This article is about electric power conductors. For portable equipment, see power cord. A power cable is an assembly of two or more electrical conductors, usually held together with an overall sheath. The assembly is used for transmission of… …
18Power quality — In its broadest sense, power quality is a set of boundaries that allows electrical systems to function in their intended manner without significant loss of performance or life. The term is used to describe electric power that drives an electrical …
19Transmission system operator — In electrical power business, Transmission System Operator (TSO) refers to the operator that transmits electrical power from generation plants to the regional or local electricity distribution operators.DescriptionTransmission System Operators… …
20Transmission line — A set of conductors, insulators, supporting structures, and associated equipment used to move large quantities of power at high voltage, usually over long distances between a generating or receiving point and major substations or delivery… …
