  2. Electrical device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_device

    Electrical device. Electric (al) devices are devices that functionally rely on electric energy (AC or DC) to operate their core parts (electric motors, transformers, lighting, rechargeable batteries, control electronics). They can be contrasted with traditional mechanical devices which depend on different power sources like fuels or human ...

  6. Electronic component - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_component

    Electronic components have a number of electrical terminals or leads. These leads connect to other electrical components, often over wire, to create an electronic circuit with a particular function (for example an amplifier, radio receiver, or oscillator). Basic electronic components may be packaged discretely, as arrays or networks of like ...
