  2. 110 block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/110_block

    A 110 punch block. A 110 block is a type of punch-down block used to terminate runs of on-premises wiring in a structured cabling system. The designation 110 is also used to describe a type of insulation displacement contact (IDC) connector used to terminate twisted pair cables, [1] which uses a punch-down tool similar to the type used for the older 66 block.

    The insulators are attached to the crossarms. For an "H"-type wood pole structure, two poles are placed in the ground, then a crossbar is placed on top of these, extending to both sides. The insulators are attached at the ends and in the middle. Lattice tower structures have two common forms. One has a pyramidal base, then a vertical section ...

    The International Association of Heat and Frost Insulators and Allied Workers (AWIU or Insulators) is a trade union in the United States and Canada, founded in 1903. It is affiliated with the AFL–CIO and the Canadian Labour Congress and the North America's Building Trades Unions .

  5. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    For example, doubling the thickness of fiberglass batting will double its R-value, perhaps from 2.0 m 2 ⋅K/W for 110 mm of thickness, up to 4.0 m 2 ⋅K/W for 220 mm of thickness. Heat transfer through an insulating layer is analogous to adding resistance to a series circuit with a fixed voltage.

    Victor Insulators, Inc. based in Victor, New York (founded 1893 by Fred M. Locke) is the oldest insulator company in North America. They originally made glass insulators for electrical lines. They suspended operations during the Great Depression , but resumed operations in 1935 as Victor Insulators.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispatchable_generation

    The fastest plants to dispatch are grid batteries which can dispatch in milliseconds. Hydroelectric power plants can often dispatch in tens of seconds to minutes, and natural gas power plants can generally dispatch in tens of minutes. For example, the 1,728 MW Dinorwig pumped storage power plant can reach full output in 16 seconds. [4]

  9. Insulator (electricity) - Wikipedia

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

    Insulators are characterized in several common classes: Pin insulator - The pin-type insulator is mounted on a pin affixed on the cross-arm of the pole. The insulator has a groove near the top just below the crown. The conductor passes through this groove and is tied to the insulator with annealed wire of the same material as the conductor. Pin ...
