  2. Electrical safety testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_safety_testing

    MOPP safety standards aim to set basic safety requirements for medical electrical equipment. "With hazardous voltages present in a system a robust and reliable approach to isolation is needed such that multiple and un-related insulation system failures would need to occur before an operator or patient is put at risk.

  3. Dielectric strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_strength

    Dielectric films tend to exhibit greater dielectric strength than thicker samples of the same material. For instance, the dielectric strength of silicon dioxide films of thickness around 1 μm is about 0.5 GV/m. [3] However very thin layers (below, say, 100 nm) become partially conductive because of electron tunneling.

    Section 7: Specific rules for composite steel-concrete buildings; Section 8: Specific rules for timber buildings; Section 9: Specific rules for masonry buildings. Section 10 contains the fundamental requirements and other relevant aspects of design and safety related to base isolation of structures and specifically to base isolation of buildings.

    IEC 60247 Insulating liquids – Measurement of relative permittivity, dielectric dissipation factor (tan d) and d.c. resistivity IEC 60250 Recommended methods for the determination of the permittivity and dielectric dissipation factor of electrical insulating materials at power, audio and radio frequencies including metre wavelengths

  6. Dielectric withstand test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_withstand_test

    In electrical engineering, a dielectric withstand test (also pressure test, high potential test, hipot test, or insulation test) is an electrical safety test performed on a component or product to determine the effectiveness of its insulation. The test may be between mutually insulated sections of a part, or energized parts and ground.

  7. Seismic base isolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic_base_isolation

    Seismic base isolation, also known as base isolation, [3] or base isolation system, [4] is one of the most popular means of protecting a structure against earthquake forces. [5] It is a collection of structural elements which should substantially decouple a superstructure from its substructure that is in turn resting on the shaking ground, thus ...

  8. Metal–insulator transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal–insulator_transition

    where ε(ω) is the dielectric function, N is the number of oscillators per unit volume, ω 0 is the fundamental oscillation frequency, m is the oscillator mass, and ω is the excitation frequency. For a material to be a metal, the excitation frequency (ω) must be zero by definition, [2] which then gives us the static dielectric constant,

  9. Dielectric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric

    In electromagnetism, a dielectric (or dielectric medium) is an electrical insulator that can be polarised by an applied electric field.When a dielectric material is placed in an electric field, electric charges do not flow through the material as they do in an electrical conductor, because they have no loosely bound, or free, electrons that may drift through the material, but instead they ...
