  2. Four-terminal sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-terminal_sensing

    Four-point measurement of resistance between voltage sense connections 2 and 3. Current is supplied via force connections 1 and 4. In electrical engineering, four-terminal sensing (4T sensing), 4-wire sensing, or 4-point probes method is an electrical impedance measuring technique that uses separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make more accurate measurements ...

  3. RS Quest - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS_Quest

    The boat has a draft of 3.57 ft (1.09 m) with the centreboard extended. Retracting the centreboard allows operation in shallow water, beaching or ground transportation on a trailer. [8] The boat may be optionally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering. The maximum power is 3.35 hp (2 kW) and maximum motor weight is 33 lb ...

  4. Trailer connectors in Australia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_connectors_in...

    A number of standards prevail in Australia for trailer connectors, the electrical connectors between vehicles and the trailers they tow that provide a means of control trailer lamps, and in one case, trailer brakes, and also sometimes, manufacturer-specific non-standard functions. The Australian market generally uses its own version of the ...

  5. Trailer (vehicle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_(vehicle)

    A boat on a single-axle trailer. A trailer is an unpowered vehicle towed by a powered vehicle. It is commonly used for the transport of goods and materials. Sometimes recreational vehicles, travel trailers, or mobile homes with limited living facilities where people can camp or stay have been referred to as trailers.

  6. ISO standards for trailer connectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_standards_for_trailer...

    Trailer connectors between the trailer and passenger car, light truck or heavy trucks with 12V systems. In Europe, both 7-pin (ISO 1724) and 13-pin (ISO 11446) are common. The 13-pin version being phased in is newer, provides more services than the 7-pin, a more positive locking and also better protection against moisture and contamination.

  7. Sterndrive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterndrive

    Sterndrive. The outdrive unit of a boat with sterndrive. A sterndrive or inboard/outboard drive (I/O) is a form of marine propulsion which combines inboard power with outboard drive. The engine sits just forward of the transom while the drive unit (outdrive or drive leg) lies outside the hull.

  8. Polyphase system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphase_system

    In the very early days of commercial electric power, some installations used two-phase four-wire systems for motors. The chief advantage of these was that the winding configuration was the same as for a single-phase capacitor-start motor and, by using a four-wire system, conceptually the phases were independent and easy to analyse with mathematical tools available at the time.

  9. Stray voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stray_voltage

    Stray voltage is a result of the design of a 4 wire distribution system and as such has existed as long as such systems have been used. Stray voltage became a problem for the dairy industry some time after electric milking machines were introduced, and large numbers of animals were simultaneously in contact with metal objects grounded to the ...
