  2. Busbar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busbar

    In electric power distribution, a busbar (also bus bar) is a metallic strip or bar, typically housed inside switchgear, panel boards, and busway enclosures for local high current power distribution. They are also used to connect high voltage equipment at electrical switchyards, and low-voltage equipment in battery banks .

  3. Electrical busbar system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_busbar_system

    Enclosure comparison with normal wiring & with busbar system. Electrical busbar systems [1] (sometimes simply referred to as busbar systems) are a modular approach to electrical wiring, where instead of a standard cable wiring to every single electrical device, the electrical devices are mounted onto an adapter which is directly fitted to a current carrying busbar.

  4. D-Bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-Bus

    D-Bus (short for "Desktop Bus" [4]) is a message-oriented middleware mechanism that allows communication between multiple processes running concurrently on the same machine. [5] [6] D-Bus was developed as part of the freedesktop.org project, initiated by GNOME developer Havoc Pennington to standardize services provided by Linux desktop environments such as GNOME and KDE.

  5. Isolated-phase bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolated-phase_bus

    In electrical engineering, isolated-phase bus (IPB), also known as phase-isolated bus (PIB) in some countries, is a method of construction for circuits carrying very large currents, typically between a generator and its step-up transformer in a steam or large hydroelectric power plant.

  6. Bus duct - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_duct

    Feeder busway is used to interconnect equipment, such as between a transformer and a switchgear line up. A variant type is a low-impedance busway, which is designed to have lower voltage drop by virtue of close spacing of bus bars, which reduces inductive reactance. A trolley busway provides power to equipment that must be frequently moved.

  7. HAL (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAL_(software)

    HAL for Linux OS was originally envisioned by Havoc Pennington. It became a freedesktop.org project, and was a key part of the software stack of the GNOME and KDE desktop environments . It is free software , dual-licensed under both the GNU General Public License and the Academic Free License .

  8. List of POSIX commands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_POSIX_commands

    Utilities listed in POSIX.1-2017. This is a list of POSIX (Portable Operating System Interface) commands as specified by IEEE Std 1003.1-2024, which is part of the Single UNIX Specification (SUS).

  9. Device mapper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_mapper

    The device mapper is a framework provided by the Linux kernel for mapping physical block devices onto higher-level virtual block devices.It forms the foundation of the logical volume manager (LVM), software RAIDs and dm-crypt disk encryption, and offers additional features such as file system snapshots.
