  2. Earthing system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthing_system

    The big advantage of the TT earthing system is the reduced conducted interference from other users' connected equipment. TT has always been preferable for special applications like telecommunication sites that benefit from the interference-free earthing. Also, TT systems do not pose any serious risks in the case of a broken neutral conductor.

    Since then, 3M has continued to use PFAs in a variety of products, with Scotchgard being the most well known and commercially lucrative. [4] Until the early 2000s, waste from the production of PFAs was dumped at four sites in Minnesota, the Washington County Landfill, the 3M Cottage Grove Chemolite Site, the 3M Woodbury site, and the 3M Oakdale ...

  4. Braid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braid

    A braid. A braid (also referred to as a plait; / p l æ t /) is a complex structure or pattern formed by interlacing three or more strands of flexible material such as textile yarns, wire, or hair. [1] The simplest and most common version is a flat, solid, three-stranded structure.

  5. Counterpoise (ground system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterpoise_(ground_system)

    The ground serves as a capacitor plate to receive the displacement current from the antenna element and return it to the feedline from the transmitter. The ground connection must have a low electrical resistance, because it carries the full antenna current and any resistance in the ground connection will dissipate power from the transmitter ...

  6. Shielded cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielded_cable

    The best way to wire shielded cables for screening is to ground the shield at both ends of the cable. [6] Traditionally there existed a rule of thumb to ground only the source end of the shield to avoid ground loops. Best practice is to ground at both ends, but there is a possibility of ground loops.

  8. Braid group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braid_group

    The composition of the braids σ and τ is written as στ.. The set of all braids on four strands is denoted by .The above composition of braids is indeed a group operation. . The identity element is the braid consisting of four parallel horizontal strands, and the inverse of a braid consists of that braid which "undoes" whatever the first braid did, which is obtained by flipping a diagram ...

  9. Ground (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)

    A ground fault protection relay must trip the breaker to protect the circuit before overheating of the resistor occurs. High-resistance grounding (HRG) systems use an NGR to limit the fault current to 25 A or less. They have a continuous rating, and are designed to operate with a single-ground fault.
