single-circuit generator
101Mains electricity — A table lamp connected to a wall socket (the mains). Mains is the general purpose alternating current (AC) electric power supply. In the US, electric power is referred to by several names including household power, household electricity,… …
102History of radar — The history of radar starts with experiments by Heinrich Hertz in the late 19th century that showed that radio waves were reflected by metallic objects. This possibility was suggested in James Clerk Maxwell s seminal work on electromagnetism.… …
103Earthing system — In sulvent systems, an earthing system defines the electrical potential of the conductors relative to that of the Earth s conductive surface. The choice of earthing system has implications for the safety and electromagnetic compatibility of the… …
104Sonic holography — is a proprietary audio filter design developed by Bob Carver and was used extensively in several preamplifier and receiver units built by Carver Corporation in the 1980s and 1990s.The goal of sonic holography is to remove distortions in pitch… …
105Neural oscillation — is rhythmic or repetitive neural activity in the central nervous system. Neural tissue can generate oscillatory activity in many ways, driven either by mechanisms localized within individual neurons or by interactions between neurons. In… …
106Vacuum tube — This article is about the electronic device. For experiments in an evacuated pipe, see free fall. For the transport system, see pneumatic tube. Modern vacuum tubes, mostly miniature style In electronics, a vacuum tube, electron tube (in North… …
107Multimeter — A digital multimeter A multimeter or a multitester, also known as a VOM (Volt Ohm meter), is an electronic measuring instrument that combines several measurement functions in one unit. A typical multimeter may include features such as the ability …
108Voltage clamp — The voltage clamp is used by electrophysiologists to measure the ion currents across a neuronal membrane while holding the membrane voltage at a set level. Neuronal membranes contain many different kinds of ion channels, some of which are voltage …
109Alternating current — (green curve). The horizontal axis measures time; the vertical, current or voltage. In alternating current (AC, also ac) the movement of electric charge periodically reverses direction. In direct current (DC, also dc), the flow of electric charge …
110High-voltage direct current — HVDC or high voltage, direct current electric power transmission systems contrast with the more common alternating current systems as a means for the bulk transmission of electrical power. The modern form of HVDC transmission uses technology… …
