2. Faraday cage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage

   Animation showing how a Faraday cage (box) works. When an external electrical field (arrows) is applied, the electrons (little balls) in the metal move to the left side of the cage, giving it a negative charge, while the remaining unbalanced charge of the nuclei give the right side a positive charge. These induced charges create an opposing ...

3. Fiber-optic patch cord - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_patch_cord

   A fiber-optic patch cord is constructed from a core with a high refractive index, surrounded by a coating with a low refractive index, that is strengthened by aramid yarns and surrounded by a protective jacket. Transparency of the core permits transmission of optic signals with little loss over great distances.

4. Power strip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_strip

   A North American power strip with two USB power ports that includes a built in surge protector. A power strip (also known as a multi-socket, power board and many other variations [a]) is a block of electrical sockets that attaches to the end of a flexible cable (typically with a mains plug on the other end), allowing multiple electrical devices to be powered from a single electrical socket.

6. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

   The 5-30 and 5-50 are physically larger, with 1 in (25.4 mm) between power pins; 5-30 also has an L-shaped neutral blade. [17] These larger sizes are uncommon, as twist-locking plugs are generally used for high-current applications. The neutral blade on 5-15P plugs is not always wider than the line blade, since the ground pin enforces polarity.

7. Compressed air dryer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_air_dryer

   The water vapor builds on the membrane and migrates through to the opposite or low pressure, side. A dry cover gas is flowed across the low pressure side and absorbs the water on the membrane. After absorbing the water, the cover gas is discharged to the atmosphere. The cover gas is generally taken from the output of the dryer.
