  2. Three-prong adaptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-prong_adaptor

    The ground tab is designed to be attached to the outlet faceplate screw, which is supposed to be connected to the building electrical ground. A cheater plug, AC ground lifter or three-prong/two-prong adapter is an adapter that allows a NEMA 5-15P grounding-type plug (three prongs) to connect to a NEMA 1-15R non-grounding receptacle (two slots).

  3. Robertson screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robertson_screw

    Many screws used in electrical applications (for example, a typical NEMA 5-15R, breaker screws, and conduit screws) use a combination of a slotted/Phillips/Robertson screw head. A few tool manufacturers make bits to engage this screw head better than the traditional Phillips allowing for more torque before camout, for example, the C1 and C2 ...

  4. Electrical wiring in North America - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring_in_North...

    Edison-base lamp sockets (called screw shell devices in the NEC) are required to have the neutral conductor attached to the outer screw shell [NEC 200.10(C)]. [5] In actual practice, the neutral terminal is silver colored, the line and load terminals are brass or (rarely) painted black), and the grounding screw is usually colored green.

  5. Banana connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_connector

    The housing may allow the connection of individual wires, a permanently attached coaxial cable providing both signal and ground, or a coaxial connector such as the BNC connector shown in the photo. Conventionally the tab located on one side of the dual banana plug denotes the ground, shell, or negative (reference) side of the connector.

  6. Screw terminal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_terminal

    Two paired screw terminals, typically used for connecting ceiling-mounted light fixtures. Screw terminals are used extensively in building wiring for the distribution of electricity - connecting electrical outlets, luminaires and switches to the mains, and for directly connecting major appliances such as clothes dryers and ovens drawing in excess of 15 amperes.

  7. List of screw and bolt types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_and_bolt_types

    The term fine adjustment screw typically refers to screws with threads from 40–100 TPI (Threads Per Inch) (0.5 mm to 0.2 mm pitch) and ultra fine adjustment screw has been used to refer to 100–254 TPI (0.2 mm to 0.1 mm pitch). These screws are most frequently used in applications where the screw is used to control fine motion of an object.

  8. Screw piles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_piles

    Screw foundations first appeared in the 1800s as pile foundations for lighthouses, [3] and were extensively used for piers in harbours. Between the 1850s through 1890s, more than 100 screw-pile lighthouses were erected on the east coast of the United States using screw piles. Made originally from cast or wrought iron, they had limited bearing ...

  9. Groundbed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundbed

    For building electrical grounding systems or earthing systems, there is a low resistance conductor bonding the metalwork and this is connected to a groundbed. The electrodes for electrical grounding are often called ground rods and are often made from steel with a copper clad surface – typically 1 to 2 m long and 20 millimetres (0.79 in) in ...
