This glossary of electrical and electronics engineering is a list of definitions of terms and concepts related specifically to electrical engineering and electronics engineering. For terms related to engineering in general, see Glossary of engineering .
By 1914, the IEC had issued a first list of terms and definitions covering electrical machinery and apparatus, a list of international letter symbols for quantities and signs for names of units, a list of definitions in connection with hydraulic turbines, and a number of definitions and recommendations relating to rotating machines and ...
Barometer A device for measuring pressure. Battery Electrochemical cells that transform chemical energy into electricity. Base In chemistry, bases are substances that, in aqueous solution, release hydroxide (OH −) ions, are slippery to the touch, can taste bitter if an alkali, [50] change the color of indicators (e.g., turn red litmus paper blue), react with acids to form salts, promote ...

This glossary of power electronics is a list of definitions of terms and concepts related to power electronics in general and power electronic capacitors in particular. For more definitions in electric engineering, see Glossary of electrical and electronics engineering .
Electrical resistivity (also called specific electrical resistance or volume resistivity) and its inverse, electrical conductivity, is a fundamental property of a material that quantifies how strongly it resists or conducts electric current. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows electric current.
