  2. Skin effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_effect

    The imaginary part of the exponent indicates that the phase of the current density is delayed 1 radian for each skin depth of penetration. One full wavelength in the conductor requires 2 π skin depths, at which point the current density is attenuated to e −2 π (1.87×10 −3 , or −54.6 dB) of its surface value.

  3. Cable theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_theory

    Later, cable theory with its mathematical derivatives allowed ever more sophisticated neuron models to be explored by workers such as Jack, Rall, Redman, Rinzel, Idan Segev, Tuckwell, Bell, and Iannella. More recently, cable theory has been applied to model electrical activity in bundled neurons in the white matter of the brain. [1]

  4. Penetrant (mechanical, electrical, or structural) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penetrant_(mechanical...

    Penetrants, or penetrating items, are the mechanical, electrical or structural items that pass through an opening in a wall or floor, such as pipes, electrical conduits, ducting, electrical cables and cable trays, or structural steel beams and columns. When these items pierce a wall or floor assembly, they create a space between the penetrant ...

  5. Transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_line

    Cables are similar to twisted pair in that many cores are bundled into the same cable but only one conductor is provided per circuit and there is no twisting. All the circuits on the same route use a common path for the return current (earth return). There is a power transmission version of single-wire earth return in use in many locations.

  6. High-voltage cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_cable

    High voltage is defined as any voltage over 1000 volts. [3] Those of 2 to 33 kV are usually called medium voltage cables, those over 50 kV high voltage cables.. Modern HV cables have a simple design consisting of a few parts: the conductor, the conductor shield, the insulation, the insulation shield, the metallic shield, and the jacket.

  7. Circuit topology (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_topology_(electrical)

    In particular, for networks which contain only two-terminal devices, circuit topology can be viewed as an application of graph theory. In a network analysis of such a circuit from a topological point of view, the network nodes are the vertices of graph theory, and the network branches are the edges of graph theory.

  8. Electrical treeing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_treeing

    Electrical treeing first occurs and propagates when a dry dielectric material is subjected to high and divergent electrical field stress over a long period of time. . Electrical treeing is observed to originate at points where impurities, gas voids, mechanical defects, or conducting projections cause excessive electrical field stress within small regions of the di

  9. Aluminum building wiring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminum_building_wiring

    Larger electrical cable that has stranded aluminum wires with an outer sheath used for service entrance feeders from a meter to a panel. In the United States, solid aluminum wires made with AA-8000 series aluminum alloy are allowed for 15 A or 20 A branch circuit wiring according to the National Electrical Code. [9]
