A shunt is a device that is designed to provide a low-resistance path for an electrical current in a circuit. It is typically used to divert current away from a system or component in order to prevent overcurrent .

In electrical engineering, isolated-phase bus (IPB), also known as phase-isolated bus (PIB) in some countries, is a method of construction for circuits carrying very large currents, typically between a generator and its step-up transformer in a steam or large hydroelectric power plant.

ISO 14617 Graphical symbols for diagrams is a library of graphical symbols for diagrams used in technical applications. [1] ISO 14617 consists of the following parts: Part 1: General information and indexes; Part 2: Symbols having general application; Part 3: Connections and related devices; Part 4: Actuators and related devices
Ayrton shunt switching principle. The Ayrton shunt or universal shunt is a high-resistance shunt used in galvanometers to increase their range [1] without changing the damping. [2] The circuit is named after its inventor William E. Ayrton. [3] Multirange ammeters that use this technique are more accurate than those using a make-before-break ...
A voltage-regulator tube (VR tube) is an electronic component used as a shunt regulator to hold a voltage constant at a predetermined level. Physically, these devices resemble vacuum tubes, but there are two main differences: Their glass envelopes are filled with a gas mixture, and
A 230 V isolation transformer A simple 1:1 isolation transformer with an extra dielectric barrier and an electrostatic shield between primary and secondary. The grounded shield prevents capacitive coupling between primary and secondary windings.
