Electrical Definitions
|
Earphone : A small speaker designed to be used very close to the ear. |
Earth Wire : A wire,connected to earth,running above the conductors in h.t.
transmission lines,to minimise the effects of lightning,to contact earth currents
in case of leakage and in other ways to lessen interference with neighbouring
communication circuits. |
Eddy Current Transmitter : A telephone transmitter consisting of a disc of
aluminium foil vibrating under the influence of the sound waves in a constant
magnetic field produced by two slab coils. |
Electric Hysteresis Loss : Electrical loss in a dielectric material
due to internal forces in the material produced by varying electricfield. |
Electromagnetic Interference : Electromagnetic interference is a condition
in which an electromagnetic emission produces an undesired response in a
specific susceptible component or subsystem. |
Electronic Circuits : A path or map with interconnecting and conducting
lines forming an interface between various elements used in the field of
electronic engineering. |
Electronic Device : A device that utulizes the properties of electrons
for ions moving in a vaccum,gas or semiconductor. |
Electron Telescope : An apparatus for seeing through haze,etc.,by infrared
rays in which an infrared ray image is formed by optical lenses on the cathode of an
Electron Image Tube by which it is rendered visible. |
Electro Optics : The study of the behaviour of electron beams under the influence of
magnetic and electrostatic field in a vacum or very low pressure gas. |
Electron Tube and Electron Valve : A discharge tube such as a thermionic valve
or "X" Ray tube,in which there is a sufficiently high vacum for the effect to be
due to stream of electrons and not of gaseous ions. |
Electrostatic Adhesion: Adhesion between two substances or surfaces due to
the presence of opposite charges,which attract each other. |
Emission: The liberation of electrons or electromagnetic radiation from the
surface of a metal,solid or liquid. |
Emitter: The region of a bipolar junction transistor from which
carriers flow,through the emitter junction into the base. |
