Speakon panel connectors (center) provided on a professional PA power amplifier by QSC with a power output of 2 x 700 Watt (4 Ohm) The Speakon (stylized speakON ) is a trademarked name for an electrical connector , [ 2 ] originally manufactured by Neutrik , mostly used in professional audio systems for connecting loudspeakers to amplifiers .
Damaged power cords of portable air conditioners have caused many electrical fires, and about 350 deaths per year. [ citation needed ] To combat this, the 2017 National Electrical Code (NEC) [ 40 ] requires each portable air conditioner sold in the United States to have either a leakage current detector interrupter (LCDI) or a ground-fault ...
Seeking a safer, more efficient connection method, Marr, working in his home workshop, developed the first pressure-type wire connector. In 1914, he produced a set-screw version, the forerunner of the present-day twist-on connector used throughout North America. Ceramic twist-on connectors from the beginning of the 20th century
[citation needed] High-power in-car audio systems using 2-ohm speaker circuits require thicker wire than 4 to 8-ohm home audio applications. Most consumer applications use two conductor wire. A common rule of thumb is that the resistance of the speaker wire should not exceed 5 percent of the rated impedance of the system.
The female part of the connector is the 7×7× 4 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (180×180×110 mm) corner casting, which forms each of the eight corners, welded to the container itself, and has no moving parts, only an oval hole in the tops of the four upper corners, and in the bottom of the four lower corners.
A camlock or cam-lock is an interchangeable electrical connector, often used in temporary electrical power production and distribution, predominantly in North America. [1] Originally a trade name as Cam-Lok, it is now a generic term. [2]
Therefore, a smoother means of power delivery is needed. A device designed and patented [ 1 ] in 1971 by Dale A. Adams and reported in The Amateur Scientist in December 1975, [ 2 ] solves this problem with a rotating disk above a base from which a cable extends up, over, and onto the top of the disk.
Five-pin male 180° DIN connector from a 1988 Schneider MF2 keyboard by Cherry. The DIN connector is an electrical signal connector that was standardized by the Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN), the German Institute for Standards, in the mid 1950s, initially with 3 pins for mono, but when stereo connections and gear appeared in late 1950s (1959 or so), versions with 5 pins or more were ...
