121Inrush current — or input surge current refers to the maximum, instantaneous input current drawn by an electrical device when first turned on. For example, incandescent light bulbs have high inrush currents until their filaments warm up and their resistance… …
122rip current — undertow (def. 1). [1935 40] * * * or riptide Narrow, jetlike stream of water that flows sporadically seaward for several minutes, in a direction perpendicular to a beach. The term riptide is a misnomer because the currents are in no way related… …
123Inrush current limiter — An inrush current limiter is a component used to limit inrush current. Negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors and fixed resistors are often used for this. Less often, other components are also used.The inrush current limiter is placed …
124Eddy current brake — An eddy current brake, like a conventional friction brake, is responsible for slowing an object, such as a train or a roller coaster. Unlike friction brakes, which apply pressure on two separate objects, eddy current brakes slow an object by… …
125Fault current — A fault current is an abnormal current in an electric circuit due to a fault (usually a short circuit or abnormally low impedance path).In terms of installation wiring, the prospective short circuit current must be known as it influences the… …

128Cryogenic current comparator — The cryogenic current comparator (CCC) is used in the electrical precision measurements to compare electric currents and/or to determine electric current ratios with highest accuracy. This device exceeds the accuracy of other current comparators… …
